  • Sometimes You Need Help

    Sometimes You Need Help

    I wrote a post that I called Becoming What You Hate.  I have been thinking about it quite a bit.  I know what I hate, and it’s just natural to become it.  I wonder if it’s because I think about it so much. As I’ve thought about it more, I…
