Blank White Page
I traded a few more days of life for two hundred and fifty blank pages of honesty. It is a long story. One full of the same regrets I know we all feel as our lives pass before us. Not a cautionary tale of regrets, but one of the decisions made without the temper of wisdom made available by age. I do not regret the choice. I regret the empty holes in my life which denied me the experience to understand my choices. I remember the night well. I was drunk and driving down the long highway as I had often done when staying near the lake. Another night of poor decisions. I’d like to blame them on a father or mother, but only I was sitting behind the wheel. My car swerved left and right as I fidgeted with the radio finding a song worth listening to. A small smile crept across my face as I heard the familiar beat of a song well-loved and often listened to. My eyes drifted back to the road. I saw white…all I felt was pain.

Siren's Lake
They had been planning this trip since the moment Jared proposed. It was a time of great happiness as the couple threw the last of their baggage into the back of the vehicle. The drive to the cabin was filled with the beauty of October leaves displaying their proud lives well spent. The wind churned as it passed judgment on the next one to fall. With each one holding an account of the passing summer's memory. The cold of winter began its long, slow, creeping into the world. A plethora of pleasant conversation filled the journey as the two newlyweds made their way to the site where they would spend the next few days celebrating the lives they imagined for themselves in the years to come.
