I continue with this common practice for another 20 minutes or so before I rise from my mildly comfortable bed. I'm awake I gather my things and package my iPad and charger. And I head out to my dads truck where I put my bags and return to house to look for a morning snack, which I don't have any luck with. Finally we get on the road and we end up at my mothers house this is where I spend my days during my suspension. I bring my things inside and return to give my father a hug and say

    As a child growing up in Rhode Island, the smallest state in the Union, the idea of a vast planet brimming with civilization and culture was more like something out of a fairy tale than it was reality.

It was at that time when I was about 25, when I started to put some effort into trying to establish more just conditions within my country especially after the implication of extremely high food prices. This is when I started my first strike involving my…

I’d eventually find no reasonable explanation and give up, chalking up all my memories of being a male to being one really realistic dream.…
