When it’s time to get off the bus, the talker has disappeared and the strange bangle is now on th

Raising a Rebel Chapter 8 is Live

Chapter 8 Oh heavenly politics   Some interesting things to think about in this chapter, historically Chinese civilization did begin to hybridize Buddhism and Taoism around this point in history. The blending was partly due to the invasion of barbarian tribes from the steppes with a need to unify various systems together to act as a counterweight.

True Ramblings

So we have been open for a month. And I know the pandemic has been heartless for countless small businesses around the world.

So it might have been foolish on the surface to open a new restaurant at this particular time. But we did.

Raising a Rebel Chapter 7 is Live- Author's thoughts
