Life has been hard the past few days, living in the wilderness not knowing where I am, not knowing how to supply food for myself, no shelter and no warmth beneath my clothing, All I have is some tattered bag with some kind of nature studies book in it from school and a half used notebook. It's cold in this forest off the suburbs of my little village close to Pakistan. I had to flee from the village , it got attacked by a pack of  snow leopards. They came down from the Himilaya's when winter struck.The snow leopards fur gets thicker in the winter and in summer they get hungry for meat , that's probably why they came to the village for meat , not animal meat but human. I woke up that night to see the sight of my mother giving her life for mine , "Run", she screamed in pain. I just grabbed my old school bag not knowing what i was doing and took a jump out of the wide open window. As i hit the ground i realised I landed on my ankle , I still had enough strenght to run. As I ran watching the bloodbath, my auntie's eyes gazed at me from beneath, tears came gently as she was dieing inside and outside from pain. I saw other children fleeing up to the Himilaya's. Luckily I didn't follow as that was where the snow leopards came down from.

In the distance there is tree's covered in layers of snow. I searched inside my bag, nothing useful only book's. How will i survive here in the wilderness when I can't find the way back home of anything at all , I have no supply of food , I went hunting once but I couldn't wait for the right moment i just scared the animal away , and the only thing I can do is have Patience when hunting the future.As I amble in the snow my shoe's are  wet and soggy with the snow. There's a light in the distance looks like a bright fire, I stop to think about yesterday. My mother was cooking dinner , my father shouting at my older sister for getting caught smoking by him. Me sitting down just staring into the fire thinking of nothing. I get closer and closer but the light just move's with me getting further away...?
