  • Earth Day

    Celebrate Earth Day by looking at some greenery around you.

    From the trees, saplings, and each individual blade of grass—I find that I’m learning more about our earth from our plant friends.

    The plants have a calming nature, which I think is a necessity in our modern world.

    Enjoy the breeze and leaves. I wish everyone in the RGV a Happy Earth Day.

  • Happy Black History Month!

    Black History Month is a reminder that our country stands on the shoulders of civil rights giants.

    Martin Luther King, Jr., John Lewis, and Jesse Jackson are classic examples of people who lead with their values.

    I hope to continue to learn about leadership from the stories of these men. They set the example on how to lead a life full of care and empathy.

    Happy Black History Month!

  • I got a bookmark by a local artist

    I went to J’aime Les Livres in McAllen this past weekend. They were selling some bookmarks designed by a local artist!

    I believe the artist is named “Andrea”. I couldn’t find a website to reference them, but the owner of the bookstore said they wanted to support the artist by selling their bookmarks.

    Please support your local artists in the RGV! I hope everyone is doing well today.
