There is a tree in my front…

There are words…

Originally posted 2020-03-20 21:26:45. There are words in my heart and mind that are desperately trying to get out.

Originally posted 2023-05-11 16:07:41. I was listening to a live on Tiktok and for some reason when I saw this meme the live came to mind. They were talking about many things but one thing I referring to is struggling can sometimes make you appreciate things more. Going without can make someone appreciate having things more.
