Was There Ever Life on Mars?

Just an Ordinary Owl? @owlwings (43987) • Cambridge, England 21 Feb 21

We Are Never Truly Alone

Charlene Sally Collins I think we all have someone we can think of who has made us smile who has passed on. I have many. I had a friend who was a boy in the 7th grade who dropped dead on the track field. He just got there just like that. It was a shock. I think of him often.

Charlene Sally Collins They were probably candy eggs. Though, we used to get eggs out of the hen house and we would have cartons to sell. We just kept them in the cool dark corner of our den when I was a kid.

Charlene Sally Collins I'm not familiar with counting words for month. I don't know what character arcs are. I guess I will maybe check with YouTube. If I can stay well enough to get active again, I hope to get to know you and your content.

Charlene Sally Collins I saw that before on TV. It is awesome how the child was encouraged to hone his craft. He may be like the professional one day. Parents should never be embarrassed by their children when they take an opportunity to try.
