I know none of us are suppose to really have the answers, but how do you move forward when someone loses their child at 16? A friend's nephew just 16 drowned in a pool at the families reunion.

I think not many people know about it so it was a tranquil little piece of space and time, with only our thoughts and the sounds of nature all around us. We made one mistake and it was quite and ...

Why do we end up where we are going each day? It started as an errand run, only we did not find the things we needed to finish the building project we are working on (Justin's electronic music desk workstation) I then suggested we stop at Rhythm, and with hesitation Justin agreed. We find inside after a two year absence as Justin was living in Long Beach, Dror, and Rick. Justin picked up a bongo and started to play, when the owner then recognized him from a few years ago, (Justin use to w...
