  • REFLECTION QUESTION

    Family planning is important because you need to know when everyone will be available and if they will have time. 
    Everyone is different so comparing 2 different people in different places, you'll see that they might not do the same things the other person does, some people just do stuff different.

    When I went hiking about 5 years ago I noticed that there was more in nature then I thought, everything looked so nice up close and in person and experiencing how nature is was a new thing for me.
