Iron and irony
“Life is a comedy for those who think, and a tragedy for those who feel.” – Voltaire, Did you know that the Earth that we live on has a central core that it made of iron? I am a geologist a.k.a Earth scientist by profession. By virtue of this I have studied at some lengths […]
Healing
Healing from the hauntings of the past,A difficult thing to do very fast,Rebuilding yourself after the upheaval of grief,Not an easy task which can be achieved in brief.
