As I lay here in this dark coffin, I slowly start to realize how close I am to death. My breathing slowly becomes exceedingly shallow and rigid and I feel as if every breath I attain is my last. As my breathing slows down so does the beating of my heart. The faith and hope I once had in someone finding me seems to be disappearing. I now truly understand what hopelessness feels like. While I lay here Ican’t help but recall the events that led me here. It started one night while walking…
The quote “Man is born free, and everywhere he is in chains” (Rousseau) doesn’t hold the same meaning it did when Rousseau originally wrote it, but it can still be applied to many facet’s in today’s life.
