Flashbacks at a time of letting go…
Day 19 of my 21 Days of Transience, and you find me in a Dundee car park… Parking spots were hard to come by the day my daughter started the next chapter of her life as a student in Dundee. The car was loaded with all that stuff parents gather together for...
Snapshots of suffering that leave their mark…
