However, as a result, there was increased pushback from the state security establishment, a turning to dirty tricks and the formation of hit squads Whose members …

Aura
*2025 stock* “Words cannot describe everything we feel. How can one accurately verbalise the sensation we feel when we’re a newborn and our mother holds us in her arms, and we feel her skin on our cheek. We clearly feel her warmth and humidity, some feeling of love from her, but it’s tough to verbalise it perfectly. Music is a language that can translate that sensation, feeling, the memory of love.” - Hatis Noit
