We truly do not deserve all we have been given. Our minds wonder from one interesting fact to another, diverting our ever-shortening attention span until a diverse network of neural highways crisscross upon our brains… Our hearts flirt with danger, suspense, tragedy, joy, elation, and pride, leading us on journeys of every emotion.
