These days it’s easy to come across articles on how to be successful. It’s what we all desire, to win; nobody wants to be associated with failing, not even me.

The tremendous joy of a new Life
So innocent. So blank. So beautiful
So squished.
So worthy.

The higher the eagle flies, the harder it becomes for the crow to breathe. Eventually, the crow will...
