Good news! We’ve reached that time of year when new year’s resolutions are making their way towards being discarded as fast as a fourth child’s artwork sails into the recycling bin. Even if you already gave up on your new year’s resolutions weeks ago (dry January fail anyone?), you still have reason to keep reading.

Why? Well, hidden within every failure is an opportunity to laugh at ourselves and recommit to creating the success we’re striving for.

Hamilton. Have you seen it yet?

I may be a little late to the party, but since it was far too hot to be outdoors this past weekend, I sat still long enough to watch it.

Conservatives have momentum after yesterday’s peaceful Second Amendment rights march in Richmond.

Predictions of Antifa, or white supremacists groups infiltrating the march to incite a riot similar to what we saw in Charlottesville in 2017, didn’t happen. Governor Ralph Northam is taking credit for de-escalating what he said could have been a dangerous situation.
