Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
I once saw a squirrel fall 30 feet out of a tree. Then 2 minutes later, two squirrels, hugging to each other, fell out of the same tree. Think about it, when was the last time you saw a squirrel fall?
Lehren, Lernen, Teilen
I know some about social justice and peace/reconciliation from a religious perspective, and conflict resolution as well. I'd be happy to discuss that with anyone. I'm open and craving to learn anything...
