Family Reunions and Funerals

I had to keep retyping Funeral as I kept typing Runerals, Like Ruins and Funerals together since it seems like Funerals that bring the family together often bring the families ruins as well... A most curious couple of e…
drowing in a sea of noise...

Sometimes when I go to an all hearing event, I feel like a sail boat that can't catch the breeze. Everyone else has sails up and is navigating just fine, but mine seems to be made of cheese cloth. Once in a while, I will…
