Crazy How Life Works

Did you know you could drown without having to be underwater? What if you wake up every morning gasping for air like a fish out of water? If being alive is precisely the thing suffocating you to death, why not just welcome death and end the misery? I remember when I used to be the little girl in a park playing under the warm rays of the sun. My family and I had this special park we always went to right on the outskirts of town. I remember how we would fly kites and run around with wide, goofy grins plastered on our faces. I used to enjoy just staring out at the vast ocean under cloudless azure skies with the sand beneath my toes. I remember what it felt like to be alive.
