THE VOID AROUND HAPPINESS

ABOUT ME
I am a writer, a philosopher, and a photographer. I believe that the most beautiful growth comes from the most complicated of situations. I believe that life is lived by the risks we take, and the good times we experience are what lead us into the next day.

I believe humanity should strive to be better every day, and it is with great hope that the writings I place here can bring about a hint of that.
