“And there she was - lying motionless on the old-fashioned, discolored rug in the living room. At that moment, as I was staring into her void eyes, I became a living corpse myself.” I swallow hard, as the vision of her lifeless body flashes right before my eyes. Eight years later, the memory is as vivid as ever. Hugh listens carefully, periodically diverting his gaze away from me. “I was distrusting my own ability to see. However, her skin, undeniably, appeared paler than usual. Her bruised,…

It was a bad hang gliding accident that landed me here. I was hang gliding side by side with my friend for her birthday. We rented hang gliders and brought them to the park by the beach. We had successfully got up in the air and were having an awesome time, flying with the birds in the air . The plan was to fly in the morning for about an hour, while the winds were strong, then we would play at the park and go in the water. We checked the weather on our designated day, and everything was going…

I nestled in the suffocating sheets of the bedding in my room, the room I had been confined to since the tragedy. The tragedy that twisted my once perfect life into a tumbling spiral of pure sorrow that I couldn't grasp. I breathed raggedly peering into the complete blackness of the room. I listened to the constant echoes of the machines that pumped medicine into my fragile body. I felt that I didn't deserve it because of the misfortunes that I caused.
