One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I saw my mother raise four upright sons by herself, by the grace of God.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to see how other people and societies have solved problems common to mine. Driving on the left side of the road: how is this better? How is this worse? What about bathrooms? What about meals? What about transportation or communication?
