Craving Connection?
I'm the kind of person who feels deep connections with others. Even if it's just for a season, I feel a sense of loss when I don't keep in touch with everyone I've ever met. From my first-grade best friend to all the coworkers I've known throughout the years, to the girl I just met [...]
