It must add up to something.
To me, everything once seemed so innocent, from a drive along the river to Grandma’s sweet tea. But as I grew older life began to feel like a struggle for which there are no answers, not even a guaranteed reward. Then somebody told me that life’s super easy, so long as you don’t try to figure it all out.
