New year, new pyjamas, new you

When you’re asking yourself if you’re making a difference, remember that the tip of the iceberg is all you see

He drove meContinue reading “Don’t put your post (or pearls) in the wrong place”
We’ve never come this way before
Winter will end,
And time will heal;
New life will come!
We’ll see the Sun, and
Come forth whole.
