You don't know what you've got until it's gone by Sikalilly

My name is James. I have two brothers, two identical brothers. My life was always 'different' but it was by no means boring. It wasn't always easy but we made the most of it. When I was sixteen I had one of the worst experiences of my life. Looking back on it now, that year changed me, a lot. It molded me into the person I am today. It chokes me up to even think about it, but if anything had been different I wouldn't be where I am right now. You know how they say everyone has a purpose? It's true. Even someone you may think can't contribute at all. If you look hard enough you'll find it, their reason for being here. Some people can see it without much effort at all. Unfortunately for others, they don't realize it until their gone.

People always say every life should be cherished. That every single one of them is equally fragile and precious. Like a beautiful glass sculpture or the blossoming flowers in spring. But the thing is, everyone's definition of beautiful is different. Some people prefer roses over orchids. Some of them like sculptures of people whereas others like sculptures of animals. And so there are times when even the most beautiful sculpture gets thrown away like trash or forgotten somewhere because they found one that's prettier. The beautiful flowers that bloomed in spring will wither away and eventually become nothing but dust. There are times when a sculpture in itself could be really beautiful but a tiny flaw will make people deem it as a "mistake". The flowers that are left to wither away just because they miss a leave, or because they aren't the right size or the right colour. So you see that saying about every life being equally precious?, yeah that only counts for the "perfect" ones. Still some of these faulty sculptures and broken flowers managed to make it into the world. They would be facing the harsh reality of this world and would have to fight to survive. Some of them would unfortunately lose this fight in the end, leaving to a faraway place in hopes to find peace and quiet. Still just being able to make it this far in this harsh world is something to be proud of, as friends and family will forever remember these brave individuals who fought hard to survive until the very end. - Kaylee de Leeuw

Life isnt all about fun.. Life isnt all about happiness.. sometimes it can also be unfair.

Surviving a small town by TaylorJohnson129

Life in a small town, the good and the bad!

Everyone has something that kills them inside. The only difference is some people have the illusion of family while others don't even have that anymore.

Everyone suffers no matter how much we think we're alone, there maybe someone out there more disconnected from the rest of the world. If you had the power to help the other and didn't take it does that make you a bad person? If you had one chance to correct the world would you take it? If you were given one power what would it be? No matter what choice you make it will come haunting back to you. The good the bad there's a fine line between what people perceive as good and bad it's up to you to decide that.

I've lived a long life, well... it seems long anyway. There are so many stories about future Dystopian worlds but they never tell you about the people in the back, in the shadows. Well, it so happens I'm one of those people. I'm not saying my life is better or more interesting but I guess it could be worse...

Just remember, you can do anything you set your mind to, but it takes action, perseverance, and facing your fears.
