If you’ve ever wondered which might be better - mindfulness or hopefulness - for others, better for you, or better overall, we’re going to walk through a study that tried to figure this out.

We’re taking a break from the more proactive sides of this conversation to step back and observe: What makes not just a friend, but a good friend, a close friend, a deep friend, a best friend, a true friend?? And do you have any? To have even one would be a massive blessing, but you might not have taken the time to think through it before now. Let’s begin to look at some of the character and relat...
