If Not You… Then Who?
Many are the times I hate my responsibilities. I couldn't be bothered by them. They take too much time, they seem redundant, there's too many people involved, it costs too much, I'm tired. However, who will do said things if I do not do them? See, I am writing this after dragging myself out of… Continue reading If Not You… Then Who?

The Honeymoon Phase: If and When

The last time I fell- I was stepping into my workplace like any other day, or so I thought. I tripped and “had an encounter with the ground”.
