The Power Of Surrender
Something I wanted to share. Strange but true, how do you reach where you are? Is it by chance, or choice? The suffering of mankind is unkind, But it reflects that, truly, we are all of the same kind.

The Blank Page
An interesting, strange aspect I recently discovered was that everything fits in as it should. However, human intelligence connives and plans, shifting things out of gear and making life uncertain and dubious.
