About Me | Perhaps the best manner to get to know anyone is by actual experience. No words need be to used in another person's presence but much will be conveyed in their actions.

I told him that it wasn't because of what we owned that made us rich, it was what we possessed in the way of love, caring, kindness, truth, integrity, honesty and more that produced all that we have outwardly and we if lost it all, we could produce it aga...(read more) |
