…. Change your world …. You may feel like life passes you by and you have done nothing to impact it. Like a rain cloud you may just float on by but when the time is right you will make your impact on the world. Did anybody else in Van or north shore catch this amazing rain shower during sunset last night? COPYRIGHT: see the rain shower in this photo, that is the tears of the copyright angel’s. It may look beautiful but the truth is it isn’t, every stolen image causes the Angels to get their wings clipped. The tears are of their pain and suffering.. save an angel and don’t steal!
