Back to reality...
Well, my trip officially ended last weekend and so many thoughts come to mind. There is so much going on around the world and it was such a privilege to be able to witness it first-hand.

You have a way of coming easily to me And when you take, you take the very best of me So I start a fight cause I need to feel something And you do what you want cause I’m not what you wanted [Chorus:] Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day Just walk away, no use defending words that you will never say And...

It’s so hard to take those steps. Those first steps. One of the truest things I ever heard was…no matter how far down the wrong path you’ve gone, you’ve gotta turn back. And it really is hard when you feel like you’ve gone as low as you can go to try to...
