Who we are.


Humans are despicable creatures.

We lie, cheat, steal. Not only from others, but also from ourselves.

We lie, telling others that we are okay, when we're truly breaking inside.

We cheat our way out of happiness that we deserve as we steal bits and pieces of others' happiness because we don't believe we can be our own.
