PREFACE Someone once told me in another life I had a way with words and maybe I should consider a career in writing what others told me to because the world needs people like that. I swore to myself with a smile plastered onto my face that I will decide what I will ultimately become. This is dedicated to those people who have to write what others tell them to write, who live with those who demand this is how they should live their lives, forced to follow a certain blueprint with milestones laid out for you to achieve and who have to live by the rules of people who don't always understand you. Who you really are, deep inside where all the heart of you is stored. When you are broken into pieces but ultimately waiting for your moment to shine.
