Sometimes we falter and face hurdles along the way. Sometimes others are responsible for the troubles we face. There are a plethora of things that could go wrong but only one needs to to stop us in our tracks. Charlie, the protagonist of Stephen Chbosky’s The Perks of Being a Wallflower, is no exception…
