&quot;The simplest way that i can understand therapy is that we&#039;re born a certain<br /> way, we&#039;re taught to be something different, and we spend our whole lives<br /> trying to unravel it and ultimately align ourselves with who we really are.&quot; ~Billy Corgan

Connecting to make
Words
That fit so perfectly together.

Why don't we fit this pattern?

That lets us see the whole thing.

How long is our story?
