It’s the last week of February. Spring Break is next month. Then Spring Football. Then Summer Football. Then Football Season. (All proper nouns. Major life events.)

Reminder: We are here to be real life.

I am a recovering people pleaser. I once found my worth how many people I could convince I was a “good person.”

I spent 2024 finding my own peace with this. I am comfortable knowing I can’t and won’t ever be able to please everyone. I am not always a great person.

Then on the 5th day of 2025, I was hit with some truth.

Back in the day when I wrote over at Love Your Love the Most it was a trend to do a Friday Five. This was fun. So I am going to bring it back to this corner of the field.

Starting with FIVE.

The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles that you refuse to change.

I truly love love LOVE a list.

I have created a few lists of items we LOVE and use in our very REAL LIFE.
