"Just do your best‚" is the phrase I grew up hearing all throughout my life. But doing my best was always something I couldn’t do lightly‚ I had to be the very best at everything I did.

friends exist‚ because its ridiculous right? To accept a figment of a child’s imagination is real and exists in our world is ridiculous‚ theres no evidence that it exists or lives among us - like God. God also has no evidence of existence‚ is God not just a figment of imagination? Religion is an out-dated form of control through: fear‚ faith and conformity.
