One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i took a six-mile walk and found railroad tracks running across a river. as i crossed, i could see the water rushing below me, furiously white and distant. i don't normally consider myself to be afraid of heights, but at that moment, i was will to reconsider.

Teach, Learn, Share

i don't know what i have a lot to share here. it's always a really good idea to have a lot of friends in different places, people you can rely on. in my personal experience, when god locks a door, he leaves a window unlocked by mistake.
