Your face doesn’t make you beautiful.

Life Is So Terrible and Beautiful at the Same Time

There’s an elderly gentleman who works at the local pharmacy store. He’s bent over and moves slowly. His hair is uncombed and a dull vacancy lurks in his eyes. He’s always there so he must need the money. His sadness is contagious. I try to say something kind or friendly t...

I’m On Top of the World!… But I Hate It
