⚓ The way it is

When you grow up, you tend to get told that the world is the way it is [...] but life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact… and that is that everything around you that you call life was made up by people no smarter than you.

Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.

This is one of those things I thought I'd just never see again. YouTube is truly a global treasure.
