"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

I screenshotted(camera) the list but I would like to go back to S taples and get some nice paper and write it out. Get them to laminate it. I used to hang these encouraging lists. Not sure why I got out of doing that. I personally like staring at the words to chew on slowly.
Good idea for a minister to share, you're right. For any community leader to share.
