I don't know what to say. I can't believe I finished this rather late but I am not tired at all. I am even more fired up now. I think I am going to continue to do this. Maybe I can come up with even more beautiful thoughts. I think maybe I am blinded before but now I am 100% convinced that someday somehow life is still beautiful and once I am done here, I am going to try to make a song about that too. I hope it's going to be some catchy upbeat music but we all know I can't just be like that overnight. Sigh!. Leave a Reply. |
