Because sometimes you need to know you aren’t alone.
I’ve forgotten the joy of brief posts about things I love. Silly me. Here’s Martyn Joseph covering a Springsteen song (two things to make me dance right there) best of all are Martyn’s reflections on the song afterwards. Best of … Continue reading
