Sep 24 Foundational Verses To Live By

We all have our go-to things; our signature outfit that skyrockets confidence, that coffee tumbler we cannot leave the house without, that perfect scent that still lingers long after the room has been vacated. As creatures of routine, it is perfectly normal to have a classic thing we gravitate toward. Routine is perfectly acceptable and in some cases, absolutely necessary to sustain normality. As spiritual beings, some universal scriptures provide the foundation on how we should live.
