Hoping you all have some time to “do nothing” and enjoy being in the moment.
This YouTube is a story that appeared on the Ellen show. I am personally familiar with this Chicago based story as I have bought the flowers and Christmas wreaths from Southside Blooms (which are beautiful). I want to share with you since I find such Joy and genuine hope when I see someone who has a vision and a plan that includes the teenagers in our community. Quilen Blackwell and Southside Blooms is such a story.
