Personal Narrative-Mort Road
I live out in the middle of nowhere, four other houses coexist out by me, and we each happen to be at least five acres apart from each other. However, we all share a road to progress onto our properties. For over 20 years this road has been a dirt road. We all have managed, became accustom to, and enjoyed living on a dirt road. But, one of the neighbors past away and his son sold his land to a real estate company, in which, disliked dirt road and paid the impact fees to have the county come out and lay a base coat over the dirt road, that left the road with bumps and flying little rocks. No one at the real estate agency, nor the county had asked the other four residents who live out here if they wanted a paved road or if they would transpire

    This is the story that I have witnessed in my community. The dispute between the boundaries of houses led to the misunderstanding of each other. Since I do not own any rights to appear theirs real name in this paper, let’s assume they are James and Taylor. James and Taylor were longtime neighbors and best friends before the dispute happened. One day, Taylor had done some changes in her front gate, which included laying a concrete slab. This concrete slab intruded on James’ property line. Taylor and James had many strong emotions about what was the best way to resolve this property line dispute. For Taylor it was only a few cm. But for James it was a very important few cm. James, concerned about maintaining his current property rights, insisted that Taylor to remove the concrete. Taylor felt that in the spirit of being good neighbors the cm should be overlooked. On the top of the issue, there was a third party, “the property line agency” that was called by Taylor to mediate this issue. James felt betrayed that Taylor had called the property line agency on him a few months earlier. Taylor had called property line agency to get help with the property line issue. Shockingly, while investigating the property line, the agent noticed that James had constructed a concrete grave of his father 5cm in the backyard of Taylor’s property land. James was forced to move his father grave from Taylor’s land. James blamed Taylor. Taylor hadn’t meant for that to happen. Then she understood James’ anger towards her. In the end, James and Taylor made several apologies to one another and let go these past transgressions. Concrete slab of Taylor was still constructed and James’ father grave was also not removed. As a result of the mediation, James and Taylor were spared the expense of the property line agency and more importantly, returned to being good…

    The recent summer rainstorms have transformed the roadways, of Wrongberight a rural hamlet on the eastern shores of Virginia, into a never-ending slip and slide. Late Saturday afternoon, vivacious Clemmy Sue Jarvis, a petite woman of sixty three, cautiously pulled out of her driveway, and slowly turned south on to Flat Bottom Road. She maneuvered the rain soaked road with great care. Nevertheless, fifty yards from her dearest friend Estelle Louise’s long dirt driveway, her rusty Chevy pickup, that she has kept mobile for years with hairpins, bubble gum, and duct tape, skidded across a massive oil slick. As a result, the pickup spins in wide circles as…

    On the first day of practice he introduced himself as “Jimmy Johnson” our defense line coach. He had a beer belly and glasses and slick wet hair and nappy eye brows and an itchy musty beard. His breath smelled like dog liver. My first impression of him is he just looks weird and mean. We began practice we ran around cones. We went over plays. Where we should line up according to the offense. Coach Johnson always thought he knew what is best for us. He would have running like slaves on D’jango. Coach ran the soles off my cleats. After all this running, my girdle begun chafing creating a rash like an unchanged baby. My feet would always hurt after practice. Looking down my feet was throbbing like a heartbeat. We would run all the lines on the…
