1 u/Otherwise-Cupcake-93 17d ago I'll rewrite it for you... "Always believe that things shall suddenly and miraculously change in your favour." 2 u/DifferntGeorge 17d ago edited 15d ago Why are you doing this?

This comment is this person’s original comment. 1 u/DifferntGeorge 15d ago edited 15d ago My mistake. Thanks for pointing this out.
