How often do you hear “Let’s make this quick, I really don’t have much time.” How often are you thinking the same exact thing? When everyone is busy with work, their personal lives or just having fun – no one wants to have someone else wasting their time for them.

The Practical Things Say A Lot
The practical things say a lot. Rather in paying attention to the basic practical things in our lives say a lot about you, the people involved and many other areas in our lives.
