Today I was inspired by this quote that I found on Values.com, listed by The Foundation for a Better Life: If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, or walk with kings—not lose the common touch; If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none [...]
Becoming Less to Be More
by Jim Sharon on 8:56 am in Uncategorized, wholeness
As Founder/Coordinator of the forthcoming Whole Man Expo, I want to continue my recent series of blogs about the concept of “wholeness.” For those who can relate to this rather esoteric term, wholeness usually conjures up a sense of a well-balanced person.
