This writer seeks Ikigai- a life surrounded by meaning and spurred on by purpose. To exist without labels and labelling, to be confined yet free, to amplify each dimensions of existence.

THE WAY OF DILEMA
By Sue von samorzewski Nothing I write now will be the truth, or maybe it is a truth I am too afraid to look at.
