As we venture through this world called Life, there are things you may never come to understand. I have discovered and witnessed more than my fair share, and I have been consumed, just as many of us are. Hope has nothing to do with surviving or obtaining a better place. Hope is an illusion. There is destiny, fate, and karma. There is also much that we must step up and do, to gain a better understanding, and to manage the wrong.

Where there is love, there is Pain You can win this war
