I find it is very hard to do.

Somehow it is most often the story behind the image that bears all the ugliness of this world.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4481510413550460157.post-43320741683962502792009-01-08T08:32:00.000-05:002009-01-08T08:32:00.000-05:00Oh....that poor door!
