Visiting Auschwitz: Twenty Years After Writing my Dissertation About It
I met an old man in a public library once. He never said a word to me. But from the pictures he pointed to in a book he was reading I gathered he had survived a horrible experience in Germany or somewhere. It was a picture of people being led ...

I'll definitely take that as a compliment! I've had a lot of practice in finding anchors to pin down a mind spiraling out of control.
Finding the light-house gives you options. Sometimes you choose to sail safely out to sea, and sometimes you ...

Visiting Auschwitz: Twenty Years After Writing my Dissertation About It

My Favorite Brands for Comfy Shoes
