But those last weeks have really made me … Continue reading Adieu eBay…
Dreams are what’s fuelling our lives and what’s pushing humanity forward. Some have small dreams, some have big dreams and some have dreams rooted in childhood.
There’s a farmer in our town who has got a dream, I suppose it’s one of his childhood dreams or even the dream of one of his kids.
