I chose twenty eight because, many agree that this is the age at which our brains are fully developed. after that age, theoretically it is more difficult to build pathways in the CPU we carry around on our shoulders. I built this writing prompt while eating Lentil soup. I realized never had a lentil until I was I’m my late twenties,

    Two friends and I ran across the state of Maryland and raised money for Breast Cancer. My friends give me a hard time as we talked with Jimmy, Dan Quayle had to get into the act. My friends say they cancelled each other out. It was a fun time.

I would love to hear you opinion as well

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
