Dead Babies and Me: a Study in Duality

Body of Christ Dysphoria
Recently, I have attempted to take a step back from my life and to rearrange it in a way that maybe could make me feel better. So, I decided to start with a very simple question. “What do I have to live for?” That was four days ago… The only answer that I’ve come up Continue reading
