DISGUST DISCUSSION



People's reactions never cease to amaze me when they learn that I homeskool the seeds & that both my mate & I work primarily from home. The looks that come over their faces say so much more the verbage that they so thoughtfully craft to cover up their true feelings. You know that look...lik

With that said, I would be withholding to not admit how lonely the journey really has become. Last week we met a bunch of people like us who have started a group called Tapestry. As a group, we went to see a musical at the grand Ole' Opry House. "Freedom Train". Of course, it was the familiar story of Harriet Tubman on the Underground Railroad, but it was a seriously remarkable portrayal of "the same knowledge that they claim to have."--Church da Poet
