    This is my personal story of realization that I am of alien descent, then living life on earth with this knowledge. Growing up in a small coastal village of Nova Scotia, it was quiet for most but not for me. These are true stories to the best of my recollection. They are always being added to as my journey never stops. I am making this work available to others so I can attract my tribe and send the message that we are not alone. Not even a little bit. World peace and love.

    I boarded the Despatch in May of 1828, leaving Ireland for Quebec, the promise of work, of land. On the evening of July 10, the Despatch ran aground off a barren rocky shore in a place called Newfoundland. "...She could see it now, across the bay off the far shore, a gray form silhouetted against the murk of mist, spray and cloud. Sitting where she knew a run of shoals and low islands barely broke the water in better weather. The wind from the gale was blowing southeast and from the top of the rise Ann could hear more than just waves and wind. Threaded between natures voice was a kind of keening, indistinct cries for help or screams. ...."

    In the quiet, salt-crusted streets of Halifax, the world has gone still. Patricia, an accountant who finds safety in the rigid logic of balanced ledgers, is unraveling. When a forty-two-cent error in her books becomes an obsession she can't solve, she turns to a nightly Zoom room called "The Coffee Corner" to drown out the silence of her North End flat. Enter Brandon-a carpenter with a weathered beard and a poet's perspective on the grain of old wood. While the rest of the world is panicking, he's carving shorebirds and tracing the history of the city's echoes. What starts as competitive trivia and witty private messages soon turns into a digital lifeline that neither of them expected. Through the blue light of their screens, Patricia and Brandon discover that while the city is on pause, their hearts are finally finding a rhythm. It's a story of finding balance when the math fails, and realizing that the most solid connections are often built in the spaces between the pixels.
