I hate someone. I am not proud of it. Hate is like a tick I can’t get rid of. I don’t enjoy the feeling and I don’t like its all consuming nature. I have tried forgiving this person I hate for her careless judgements and her senseless attacks but it’s hard. It is hard because…
Today’s #BeReal guest is Accidentally Reflective. So far we have had images of people to go along with each post but today our guest will remain anonymous. This does not make her any less real.
