127 Hours. An incredible film of a true story.
If you know the story behind this you’ll agree. It’s about a guy named Aron Ralston. Imagine spending 5 days in the middle of the desert trapped by a rock. He did. But… he lived, and the way he freed himself is pretty amazing. I’m super interested to see how well the story has been [...]
Our broken world, part 1.
Parents should not have to bury their children. I’ve got a series of visuals of how our world is broken, and then I promise I’ll brighten this blog back up. :) The first comes for two reasons: one, because the following song has somewhat been stuck in my head since I first heard it & [...]
