When friendships fizzle out – Lil Fizz and the brocode
Every major movie that I can remember had some type of life lesson. The lesson could be as simple as “you only get three great women in your life” or as deep as “be ready to leave anything or anyone in 30 seconds or less.” If you grew up watching these movies, it instilled a […]
