Ive been thinking a lot lately about lying, liars and the stories people tell themselves and others. I wonder sometimes if people tell themselves a story enough times if they actually believe it or if they still know it's a lie and just dont acknowledge it. Can you create truth from bullshit? At least in … Continue reading The tangled webs we weave

Life update #713
Hey everyone, it's been a minute! This is quite overdue and a whole lot has changed in the past few months. Firstly I moved.

Butterfly
It feels like a lot has changed since my last post even though it's only been a few days.

I watched a documentary the other day about broken children.
