It’s the year of the rat. I’m full of hope. I’m optimistic. However, this first month of the new decade was a bit rough. I don’t think I really need to recap. But here I go. Earthquakes. Bombings. A new deadly virus spreading throughout the world. Through January […]
The year has been off to a raucous start. Name it and it seems to have already happened. Well, except for the apocalypse. However, many would say that the signs are pointing to such an event. As it is currently heavily raining in New York, I started thinking […]
