Everything that we do in life is fateful. All our choices contribute to our eventual fates. I'm talking the major to the mundane. Taking an extra five seconds to look in the mirror on your way out the door will change your life. It's not a possibility, it's a guarantee.
We’ve probably all heard that “life is a jungle” but no one tells you that you’re not at the top of the food chain. We like to think we are. We–humans–are the only ones with the ability to be self-aware, right? And we think that makes us tops in the world of eat or be eaten. But it doesn’t. We’re prey to all of those lurking creatures hidden in the dark recesses of our minds. Pain, and grief and hurt and fear. And those beasts, those monsters… they eat us alive. They chew us up from the inside out.
