I never took the time to appreciate beauty in the world or in random things. The main reason must be because I never stopped; I was always moving, always thinking about my issues. Just me, me, me and always me.  Growing up, I dreamt of being a novelist and was attracted to art in all its forms. Yet, my dreams were cut short because of capitalism 😂. I didn't know what being a writer...
