Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
I had a surreal experience this week. Last Sunday was Father's Day and I posted a tribute to my Dad who died before my children were born. I sat thinking about him a lot over Sunday and Monday, wishing that I had videos of him to show my kids and grandkids and sad that I …
Do you ever have one of those days that just feels blissfully perfect from start to end? I did last Saturday. First of all the weather was clear so I could pray to the 7 Directions outside on my hill when I woke up. Then I attended our women's group from 9:00 until 12:30 and …
