“You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” I think we’ve all heard this quote. And while it may not be true for every individual, I think it can find its place in many facets of life. I have a lot of places that have felt like home…
Some people deserve the world and some people just don't. Some people get what they want easily, some work hard for it, and some don't get anything at all. We all know that life isn't fair. We live it, breathe it, see it, and participate in it. So why do we constantly think we are…
