lessons from god knows when
2/7/2021: I logged back into my livejournal page to find this unpublished entry from god knows when. I'm assuming it was written within the last 3 years. I absolutely loved reading it and being reminded of this moment, and I would adore to share it with you now ( Read more... ) -
