If my shoulders get any broader, the hip to shoulder ratio will be way off. I’m going to get too top-heavy and topple over.... Continue Reading →
Photo by Jeremy Thomas on Unsplash.com Time. A swirling vortex of mass, substance, and neon luminescent gas. Ever-changing, evolving, turning itself inside and out. A chameleon and a con man. The good guy and the villain. The hero and the arch-nemesis. All-consuming and apathetic. It is everything and it is nothing at all. An illusion.... Continue Reading →
