I get it.
It was early afternoon.
Broad daylight. A lot of traffic.
A man near the corner traffic light where I was stopped
was trying to wrap a blanket around himself to stay warm.
He was standing next to a building that had a slight

Some time ago now I had
the opportunity to attend
an Event where the
headliner read:
“Men are from Mars,
Women are from Venus”
Well, believe it

this is the only part I heard.… —-> Continue…
What are you doing right now
that is more important than changing the World?
