Today’s lesson is about platonic relationships and how valuable they can be. Many know me as very outgoing, willing to strike up a conversation with anyone and everyone.

While this song is probably about a boyfriend helping her when “the world is loud” or when you feel “so cold, alone, Could you be my blanket”?, I think […]
God I hate waiting. Or God, I hate waiting. I am impatient at times. I want the next. Passing time between the now and the next is boring. But that waiting is when we experience life.
