The Station by Robert J Hastings
“The Station is an illusion–it constantly outdistances us.”
TUCKED AWAY in our subconscious minds is an idyllic vision in which we see ourselves on a long journey that spans an entire continent. We’re traveling by train and, from the windows, we drink in the passing scenes of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at crossings, [...]
Be Thankful
Be thankful that you don’t already have everything you desire.

Your Bank Of Time

Happy 4th of July!
Americans as you celebrate today with your family and friends at picnics and barbeques, take a few minutes to ponder why America celebrates today.

I believe…
That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
I [...]
