Intro
Caution, you are entering the 'Real World,' you may experience anger, violence, frustration, hate, fear, and judgement - all painful aspects of life that help self-development. If you follow the journey you may realise everything is just one individual's experience from everybody's own unique journeys of self-exploration to find truth, love, acceptance, understanding, happiness, and openness. Where does this journey end? You may think track 12, or have you already realised it ends on the last breath? Keep Conscious.
