A moment in my childhood that’s not necessarily a great one but one that I will remember forever. I will remember the awful feeling I had when I heard the news, and the feeling of nonbelief. The news that I had received was the passing of my father. I remember the day, that I had found out like it was yesterday.

A world world with death and sadness. I remember it like it was yesterday. It was a beautiful morning on August 13, 2013, a Tuesday. I remember rays of sunshine slipping through the blinds awakening me from my peaceful slumber. I slowly crawled out of my bed and rubbed the sleep from my eyes. Where is the smell of coffee?
