My Life's Vision
When I was younger, I thought I knew what my life was going to look like. I had imagined graduating high school, going to law school, and living an independent life. After law school, I would work in a small-town practise, buy a ranch and rescue horses and maybe even dogs. I would drive to my parents house a take my younger siblings out for after school treats and on weekend trips to the movies. My best friend and I would go on frequent road trips to investigate amazing sites and unknown locations. But as you probably know, life doesn’t always go to plan.

My Protectors
Our home was once filled with laughter. There were great skies filled with clouds, butterflies and happinesses. The children played in the grass and washed their hands in the flowing river. The dogs barked and the birds chirped all in perfect harmony. Our houses where consumed with the smell of freshly baked cookies. The jacaranda trees blew in the breeze, the flowers dispersing like purple rain falling from the heavens.
