It's a pleasure to read.<br /><br />Life , however, has also less pleasant happenings, like the above at Lockness. I think, everything we experience good or bad, helps making our character stronger.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8085364042461678579.post-8318625011912835762021-02-18T22:04:43.806+02:002021-02-18T22:04:43.806+02:00What a sad story of the "friendliness" o...What a sad story of the "friendliness" of people in their own land.
