          Gratitude Jar Challenge:

          Collaboration: Tees By Sharon

          “In my life I have found two things of priceless worth - learning and loving. Nothing else - not fame, not power, not achievement for its own sake - can possible have the same lasting value. For when your life is over, if you can say 'I have learned' and 'I have loved,' you will also be able to say 'I have been happy.”

          ― Arthur C. Clarke
