Thru the Body
My body is my friend. My body is my temple. I feel my body intensely when I lie in bed, all curled up with a pillow under my head and… Read more Thru the Body →

The Mind Set
This is a piece of writing to honor the latest school victims that fell to bullets from a gun in the wrong hands. It is a piece about the mind set of a society. It is a piece about immigration.
