If exercise was sold in the pill form, it would be the number pill sold throughout the world because the benefits are endless.
Want to lose weight? Do more than just think about it. You don't need to hold off while you keep searching for an abundance of motivation to lose weight. What you need is an abundance of action.
At present we are on the outside of the world, the wrong side of the door. We discern the freshness and purity of morning, but they do not make us fresh and pure. We cannot mingle with the splendours we see. But all the leaves of the New Testament ar...
its more a trance, jonah said. the whole world is pressing in on me, like a weight on my chest, slowly pushing me down ans down. and there's nothing between me and this weight but my flimsy skin. Its not enough. It won't protect me. It doesn't keep a...
