Positioned to Hear
Ever had a phone call drop out mid-conversation, just when you’re getting to the good part? Or, been in an elevator where you’re waving your phone around like it’s a magic wand, desperately hoping for a signal? We’ve all been there.

Slow Down and Listen to the Frogs
My inspiration for today’s blog came from a friend’s FB post.
