That's The Thing About Pain, It Demands To Be Felt.

Recently in my English class at school, we read a blog post a man wrote about his father who had recently passed away. We then had to write an emotional piece on someone we know or knew. I wrote mine about my Dad and I might post it here someday.But that's not why I'm telling you about the class.
