I am better than you because I have a big house. I am better than you because I don’t need a big fancy house to be happy. I am better than you because I am free of debt and live on my own terms. Why are people like this? Who cares? Live the life you […]
I hear a lot of people, especially people who like to call themselves religious, talking about how they aren’t respected as they feel they should be.
