New Beginnings: A New Social Contract is a Cycle
Today I was driving with a friend to meet a new friend. As we were driving a car suddenly did a U turn on the freeway. It is all one way. It was sudden and totally unexpected. I watched almost detached as all the cars slammed on their brakes. No-one was injured thankfully. As I… Continue reading
