Live | Laugh | Love - Not as Simple as it Seems

 Spent months questing for happiness and envisaging peace in life - little did he know that it was only lying somewhere in the intricacies of his mind. Mines he excavated into the hearts of others, and sky-high mountains he climbed to soothe the world, only to realize that the aghast flowing rivers of self-sabotage flowing deep within him have the potential to bring all his herculean efforts to lull.
