Good morning! How was your weekend?
I spent most of my weekend with my fingers on the keyboard, working on a few exciting projects for July. I can’t believe that today marks 11 months since I started this project! (It’s hard to write that sentence without a hundred exclamation points.)
Today, I’m taking the afternoon off to read at the lake since I worked the weekend away. But first, I wanted to share some of the most interesting articles I read over the past week — a little something for you to peruse with your morning coffee.
Onward.
Note: As a disclaimer, I want to say that the links I share below do not necessarily reflect my own views, either politically or personally. Some are left-leaning, some are right-leaning, some are more in the middle. I am constantly challenging myself to consider issues from all angles, and these links reflect this challenge.
Secondary note: Additionally, I want to take this moment to encourage you to share feedback/thoughts of your own in the comments section. I’m sincerely up for open dialogue and the sharing of opinions and ideas. That said, whether in agreement or criticism, please always treat each other with mutual respect.
