I have been on a journey all of my life to find out who I truly am. This self-discovery journey consists of equal parts honesty, authenticity, pain, and writing. And I am committed to it until the day I am no longer here.
Randomly routing through some old documents lurking in desktop folders and I suddenly came across my life goals list dated 2013.
