I'm just so tired of life being something that happens to me. That's not how it's supposed to work. I'm supposed to make my own life.

Joshua Edward Smith
About This Quote

Society tells us to be afraid of life. To cower in the face of the unknown. But not me. I'm just gonna get out there and live it to the fullest.

Life is supposed to be something that happens to me, not something that happens to me. I'm gonna make my own life.
