Wisdom of the Lizard
I remember in spring 2016 I was going through a rough patch, a time of uncertainty regarding the future steps to take, and making sense of the past ones, having to face the fact that I was probably going through a mild depression and having to acknowledge that and be conscious of the life events,Continue reading “Wisdom of the Lizard”

What areContinue reading “Is it love?”
