Freely Given

Each from the level of their talents Freely given in an act of common creation. Each to the level of their needs. Empathy empowered, not socialism, survival. ~~~~~ Peace is […]

Never or Rarely

Perspective
~~~~~ I’d happily spend all of my days as nights, If I could only live all of my nights as days. What’s the problem someone random says? They are but labels; call them what you like. Trees, I believe, may well be dogs or birds. While dogs are railroads and birds flowers. Seconds could last […]
