Having One “Soulmate” Sounds Overrated
We won’t all visit China, not everyone will get to experience climbing a mountain, and not everyone gets the chance to perform in sold out arenas. So why is it that we as a society are so hung up on the idea that everyone will find one true love in the form of a husband or wife? And then stay with that one person until eternity?

Embark on Both Real and Make-Believe Haunts Before Halloween

Article after article is written on why the hook up culture of our generation is so detrimental.
