I'm just another person riding this rollercoaster we call life, trying to enjoy the ride while simultaneously trying to figure out why I'm strapped in in the first place. I've seen highs and lows and in-between, and I have stories and poems that reflect how I've felt during those times. My goal is to share my perspective on life and to hopefully inspire others to do the same. And while I do have some uplifting pieces, I also have some not-so-uplifting pieces because I know that sometimes all we see is the downhill or all we feel are the loop-de-loops taking us on a never-ending spin. Anyways, I just want to leave you with this fantastic quote by Neil Gaiman:

"Saying that we have enough artists is like saying we have enough scientists, we have enough designers, we have enough politicians -- we have enough politicians -- but, you know, nobody gets to be you except you. Nobody has your point of view except you. Nobody gets to bring to the world the things that you get to bring to the world -- uniquely get to bring to the world -- except you. So, saying that there are enough writers out there, enough directors out there, enough people with points of view. Well yeah, there are, but none of them are you. And none of those people is going to make the art that you are going to make. None of them is going to change people and change the world in the way that you could change it. So if you believe somebody that says, "No, no, we've got enough of those," then all it means is that you are giving up your chance to change the world in the way that only you can change it."

11. The Teddy reviews
Many people tend to deal with their emotions by stuffing them down inside themselves so that no one can see them. But if you stuff too much for too long, you'll start to get holes, your seams will wear thin, and soon you'll just fall apart.
