The Smoldering Wreckage Of Everything Else...

I wonder sometimes if some things that have happened to me were for the best, no matter how painful. Alot has happened to me in the past year and a half, and I wonder sometimes if I really am the same person I used to be. I've always said that people never really change, and that opinion of mine hasn't changed either. However its like things around me have changed so much that I can't help but think that, maybe, I myself really have changed.
