Yet, most people never really figure out their true passions and make a life doing those things. That’s why there are so many miserable people in this world. Aspiring artists, authors, and cartoonists are all incredibly talented individuals, smothered by th

Growing up I was always kind of the loner kid, never truly had a crowd of my own and just kind of jumped around clique to clique if you’d like to call it that. From the rednecks to the stoners to theatre kids, I never really settled into any
