What was utter exhaustion earlier has turned into utter inspiration after fulfilling my appetite with cabbage-seafood- and vegetable stir-fry and … Continue reading Isolation
Warrior
Warrior You cannot keep a fighter from fighting. They long for the battle, the fight, the challenge. They long to conquer. To overcome. For victory. If they aren’t fighting, they are bored.
