“I came from North Carolina. I was raising pigs on a farm for a while. Coming here from the South made me realize how unwise I am compared to everyone in Colorado. I have a lot of angles I need to look at– relationships to be specific. The key to relatonships is being able to […]

“This one time, I was in India and this guy ran up to me and started crying hysterically and I couldn’t understand why. I wanted to know so badly. In this weird way we related– I could feel all of the emotions he was going through. His daughter had died. She was only one. That’s […]
