They say Easter demonstrates how much can happen in just 3 days and I can’t help but take it as a beautiful sign that my birthday coincided with the celebration of resurrection this year.

if its not a hell yes its a no carly benson

I live in Naples, Florida – the retirement capital of America.

1111 meaning carly benson

You always hear people say: “It’s 11:11, make a wish.” It’s supposed to be a good luck omen, but I believe 1111 goes beyond good luck.

I recently went to a singing bowl meditation. Singing bowls are amazing instruments that make beautiful harmonic sounds similar to the sound a wine glass makes when you run your finger around the rim fast enough.
