For that One Person
It’s easy to want to be famous. To get a lot of attention. A lot of views. A lot of love from a lot of people you don’t know. It would make you feel important. Valuable. Loved. At least that’s what it seems like it would be. I’ll admit, I struggle with both wanting that… Continue reading
