“Stay close to anything that makes you glad you’re alive.” — Hafez “Wow! Yes!” I thought to myself when I first read the quote.  I’m a sucker for a good quote. If you follow this blog, you already know that. And this one? Definitely Post-it-worthy.  It’s easy to lose sight of the things that bring…
