In a valley cradled by whispering hills, there lived a Lantern Keeper who tended a tower of light. Every evening, he climbed the spiral stairs, his steps slow but sure, to ignite a flame that pierced the night.

The Un-American Left – Infused with Marxist ideology
The claim that the Un-American left is infused with Marxist ideology is a contentious one, but I have my reasons for saying so. Influenced by progressive thought, often anti-christian, many of my friends are unknowingly guilty of Marxist ideology. I suppose they don't see their loyalties as extensions of their political party, just like they …

Well, Jackie got pickpocked at the Saint Lazzare train station today. They didn't get much, thankfully. She had just moved her phone …
Poverty – A Lesson Learned in Sint Maarten

Maybe we could have met Tarzan, the ape man, cuddled baby monkeys, swung from vines, and slept in tree houses. Off …
