Below the staircase, we store old wines, bicycle bells, and narrow gauge model train sets.

In the attic, we sip port and consider the best companies to bet on.

Going somewhere and chewing basada bark.

Oh. Basada – It’s a new tree, grows to about two meters height and flowers three times a year.

This is the time to stop them.

Sometimes it seems beyond reach, too much, too far, just not now.

But then your intervention will change the world, it’s good you know, for the better.

And this is just you and one other person at a time.

All matter is made of particles. All vibrate, and some collide.

Everything influences everything else.
