Kara's Soft Words

(After posting this on social media, someone asked me to make it an actual blog post, so here we are...Y'all are getting the emojis and everything! LOL!) Receiving this gift both encouraged and challenged me . 🙏😅 A few weeks ago, my boss brought this painting to our building & from that first day, it caught my attention. It literally sat near my desk- for weeks. I kept admiring it but never really told anyone how much I liked it.🙃 Last Thursday, she was rearranging our workspace & at the end of the day, she asked, "Does anybody want this???"👀 Clearly, you see what happened.🤣 It hit me though. . .
