Inheritance
What legacy have I been born into, have you been born into, have we been born into? The farmer, the preacher, the banker, the slave owner, the slave; the pawn, the mom, the sister, the son, the game. It’s all a game of competition or at least it all seems like a gameContinue reading “Inheritance”
at the ocean
