Our Human “Race”

Thursday, May 20th, 2010 in Beauty in Everyday, Life

Have you read Is There Really a Human Race? by Jamie Lee Curtis and Laura Cornell? You should.  It has become one of my favorite children’s books. It talks about the “human race,” the point of our lives, why we do what we do and why we seem to be going as soon as we come out […]
