May I get through this ... I must admit, I'm tired, and this tiredness can't be cured with 8 hours sleep. I must admit, I am in awe with all of the unfairness that I must go through, silently, because I'm a woman. No support after a divorce, a bloody expensive fee to the money-hungry … Continue reading Admit

Rumi said, if this life is a guest house, we should treat each guest honorably ; even though they often come unexpectedly, uninvited -most of the time.
