(Listen while you read) I took the above photo on Wednesday. I was coming back from an interview, and it rained. I’m not sure why I was so surprised, considering that a storm had been tipped for the week. But unfortunately, I was wearing a […]
I tend to be inspired to write blog posts by things around me and by things that have happened to me, and that has then provoked me into some deep thinking. A couple of days ago, I was quite upset to hear that someone had […]
