This text began as a compilation of my life struggles and conquests, but developed into much more. Its content is shared exactly how I remember, serving as a collection of experiences from the lives of many individuals. My life has taken strides from one point in time to the next, sometimes connected and at others without any transition periods at all. This book was not written to brighten one's perspective or leave the reader feeling better upon its conclusion, but instead directed at challenging human emotion and feeling.
