Quote by Ellen Goodman
We spend January1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing

We spend January1 walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives… not looking for flaws, but for potential. – Ellen Goodman
