Intensity Of Purpose
Intensity of Purpose One of the first unhappy side effects of the medications taken for my cardiac problem was that it took away my morning exuberance that had me thrusting my feet to the floor all the days of my life till then. (yes, I am grateful they have kept me breathing!) But without my…
