possibility<\/em> to add real value to your life. Sometimes the possibility alone is worth taking a chance on. Don’t get me wrong though, some things are ends in itself – AND IT’S OKAY. It’s just up to you to classify the values. I was gonna write about how you shouldn’t live your life living up to expectations and societal norms – BUT WHAT IF THAT’S THE SHIT THAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD?
