The never-ending ladder that leads to everywhere.

July 6, 2012 is a day that will forever be burnt into, not only my mind, but my entire being. I was beyond scared, this was not just your normal fear, I was in fear for my life. The fear was real but it was entirely voluntary. I had been looking through some pictures from a […]
