Morality which depends upon the helplessness of a man or woman has not much to recommend it. Morality is rooted in the purity of our hearts

Not a positive note but I thought it was important to write this as people often find themselves in situations where they know they feel so helpless and weak to respond or find a solution. The feeling of helplessness is one of severe pain where a person finds all his knowledge, wit, might and ability incapable of restoring normalcy. Some instances are where people become … Continue reading Morality which depends upon the helplessness of a man or woman has not much to recommend it. Morality is rooted in the purity of our hearts

I did my first open mic at the B&N here and when they closed the writers group moved to borders, but before I could visit there, they too are closing. When I saw the B&N close I said what a miss, not just because it was closing but because I Continue reading “My Bookstore….”
