Shriek, she heard it alright. It was from the woods, where during the day, everything was silent. Tonight, it was different.

She wasn’t happy,Continue reading “Shriek”

Acts of Kindness
Another blogger https://sillyfrogsusan.com/author/sillyfrogsusan/ told us about a memory where a elderly woman was handing out roses, and kindness. I think that is something we are all capable of.

DIY
