Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

A deer frantically swimming in the ocean towards the shore and I saw a big oak tree fall down in a cemetery.
I hiked up Mt. Antero (fourteener) and found aquamarine.
I explored spirit caves in northwestern Thailand & fit thru some tight spaces to see glittery calcite growths, an internal waterfall, and unlimited bat poo.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Before Islam, Egyptians thought only of immortality. Since Islam, they think only of life after death. What is the difference? To understand the difference, you must live for many months without moisture.
