At some point, people have to wake up & realize that life isn’t all one big fairy tale ending.

It’s a silly adolescent fantasy that everything will be perfect when we get what we want.

Every now & again people ask how I like living in Utah. Usually I never really go into detail (it has pros & cons etc). But one thing that has struck me about living here is how a lot of white people here have gone their entire lives w/o meeting or seeing a single Black person.
