A few weeks ago, we took a trip up north to see Justin for a little birthday get together that promised good company and BBQ. I brought sour patch kids because they’re amazing and go with everything.

I’m not a soldier of any one religious sect. I realized you can never put a circle around the truth and say that it belongs to one sect. I’m a student. . . . I’m not a Muslim, a Buddhist, a Christian, a gangsta, a thug, or a prophet. I’m not any of these things, although in a way I’m all of them.
