Humans are weird. Well more the choices they make than anything else. Take a global view – look at Earth from space. What do you see human-wise? Do you notice they live all over the globe? Little bare-foot guys running around in deserts, others in the tropical sweaty jungles. Fur-clad cousins out in the freezing … Continue reading Frost, Fire, Friends – Winter in the Berg

Braveheart
When I hear the word Freedom, my mind goes to the dramatic scene in Braveheart where William Wallace screams it out just prior to losing his head.
