The physical domain of the country had its counterpart in me. The trails I made led outward into the hills and swamps, but they led inward also. And from the study of things underfoot, and from reading and thinking, came a kind of exploration, myself and the land. In time the two became one in my mind. With the gathering force of an essential thing realizing itself out of early ground, I faced in myself a passionate and tenacious longing— to put away thought forever, and all the trouble it brings, all but the nearest desire, direct and searching.

I jump out of the car excitedly and call to my dad even though he was right next to me. “Dad, We need to go inside the building to get the greens fee.” We stroll to the player shop. I look around at all of the leaves turning yellow, orange, and red. I observe a frog along the side of the lake where we were walking.

- 559 I knew Rebecca would cause a bit of mischief, but I never would have guess she would inform the media that my daughter and Trever were engaged or soon to be. She knew Aeryn was arriving with her boyfriend and would dare embarrass my daughter with the whole world watching. I did know some of things foolish she had planned, but I must admit I did not see the sneak attack at the car or leaving word at the door coming. I may have no other choice except to take things into my own hands, and not even Aeryn will be able to hold back a smile from blooming on her face when I do. For now, I needed to get things moving forward on my end.
The sun glistened in the daybreak and a dark figure appeared on the foreground, and moved gracefully across the pathway, nearing the bench that presided at my side. My eyes scoured upward as he neared and the sun blinded me, but not before I saw the figure, a man, glance my direction and change his course.

His trousers were khaki color that exalted the man’s frame. Once my eyes cleared and I was able to open them the man was closer than before and I was able to see his face much more clearly.

Making new friends was hard because I would be alone until I found new friends and I would have no one to talk to so I would be very quiet. Usually I would always be talking to a friend and I am only social with friends.

One can only wish that the world was ending. In this sense, our true selves arise from the pile of debris that was once life’s structure. It happens in every novel from Middle School book club; we’re all protagonists. If only one could prove themselves in an epic feat, not through an SAT score.
