Faith
Life and Philosophy
Life is what we make it. Old and trite but its true. Took me longer than many to realize it. Took me longer than many to realize that there will always be hardships that happen in our life. For a long time I thought faith would mean my life would be better. It is better [...]
Not So Natural Selection
Man is evolving before my eyes. I started to say our eyes but since so many people think man didn’t evolve, I didn’t use that word. This article is NOT about man evolving from ape has man evolved?
