Without further ado, here’s this month’s story… Awakening.

All Alannah wants is to see. In the spiritual sense. Her life is so clouded by calls and emails, sharing her life online, buying things she doesn’t need, and pretending to listen to her boyfriend. She desires clarity. She deserves clarity. She will get clarity...no matter what.
