Oct 18, 2010 | Preparedness, Psychology

You read it right. And, frankly this is just a theory I am developing based on a conversation I had today with someone. Prepping is morally, the right thing to do. I say this because being prepared for ANY type of disaster no matter what you prep for will ease your…
