Life is Good

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 18 Comments/ 427

Arizona, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Minnesota – What Do These States Have in Common?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Life stories, Writing/ 26 Comments/ 638

My People Necklaces – The Perfect Gift

Beth Ann Chiles/ Friends, Products/ 28 Comments/ 510

Friendships sometimes come and go. This past week I attended the Celebration of Life of a dear friend from my “work church”.  One of the men that spoke reminded all in attendance to basically cherish and nurture friendships. He said his only regret was that Continue reading →
