Everybody is going through something, you're not alone. It's like that Pfunk song goes 'I've got a thing, you've got a thing, everybody's got a thing, And so if each one of us has a thing that we're dealing with alongside living our lives then we shouldn't use that as an excuse. It is so … Continue reading Everybody’s got a thing
