The War of 2020

In the year of 2020, the battleground was no longer across a wide and vast battle field. No, the vile weapon is invisible to the challenging solider. The War of 2020 was fought by warriors on small fields of white. Lying on their backs, on sterile battle beds.

Imperfection-I am not perfect…Sorry society I can’t be perfect

A small boy in a shed

A small boy walked carelessly -Home from school, Dark clouds formed above him-The weather became cruel
A saying spoke by his mother was the boys’ inspiration- “Our dreams help us to survive,

My First Memory
