So we destroy our health of our bodies for promise of wealth&we destroy the health of the planet for wealth. Neither makes sense as a long-term investment.”
Somerhalder continued by revealing that he made it his “goal” to “get back to feeling strong & grounded,” adding that it felt like “the walls” were “closing
