Usually I am a man that takes life one day at a time, making sure I wake up and do the best I can each and every day. So this last week I have been out of character to say the least.

All Hallows Eve
It was All Hallows Eve, I remember when this day used to more relevant to me, dressing up and getting tons of candy just no longer seemed very appealing to me.
