The Injury "It’s not so important who starts the game but who finishes it." - John Wooden This time‚ I didn’t finish the game‚ I usually do! But.. not this time. This time was different‚ it was serious. It truly took a part of my life away. I heard a loud bang‚ almost like a gunshot. Fear and anger swept across my face‚ I knew something was wrong‚ all wrong.

In the Shandows In a worn in leather passenger seat I was looking through the rolled down window. A warm summer breeze was entering the beat up green ford truck. The radio was softly playing “Blue Moon “by Elvis. Outside it was early evening and the sun was setting a lovely color of oranges and reds‚ it was a blissful day in along the seaside of North Carolina. In my lap was my partner in crime‚ little Bowie.

Dear Journal‚ Today is September 20‚ 2030. I woke up in this strange and desolate place. The last thing I remembered before waking up was seeing my husband‚ Anthony‚ and my son‚ Angel.

going on a date and have a babysitter coming to watch over me. I didn’t really like that I had to be home with a babysitter because I am already 12‚ but I didn’t complain because I knew they don’t want to have to cancel all because I’m having a fit.

Veronica was actually shocked that she’d enjoyed the date so much. When it had originally been brought up by Sarah and Jake that Jake had a single friend she had waved off the idea of a bind date. Eventually Sarah had worn her down though and now as well as the date had gone she didn’t think Sarah would ever let her forget this. She smiled slightly at the man sitting next to her as they made their way down the street she lived. Glancing down at the slim gold watch that circled her wrist she realized

Prejudice is something that no one thinks they are fond of. I have never found myself to be in a situation where I thought that I was being bias or making an unreasonable assumption in the moment.
