Water is Life
Why is there life on Earth? Why did this planet grow life and not Mars or Jupiter? What an amazing thing thing it must've been when Earth moved to the exact spot in the galaxy, in the universe where hydrogen and oxygen were formed and mixed to the exact 2-1 ratio H2O....
The Secret of Secrets
What makes a secret secret? Have you ever noticed that the more unobtainable something is the more we want it? It's human nature to be curious. How many parents have told their child NOT to do something and then turned round to see their darling doing EXACTLY the...
Lucky or What?
OK OK so it's been a while. You're telling me. I have been living and learning. What for a whole year?! I hear you shriek. Lucky for you, I'm back. For many years I have believed myself to be extremely lucky. Lucky to be born, lucky to be alive, lucky to be here in...
