With tiny hands...
I don't know how to say this, so I will say it bluntly: my identical twin sister was horrifically murdered July 24, 2018. I still can't fully wrap my head around it, nor how someone could be so deranged as to lay their two hands so horrifically on MY twin.... my sweet, precious, fun-loving, pure spirited, good hearted, always smiling, just wanting to offer a helping hand to anyone in need.... twin.

I met a fairy once.... I called her twin.
There’s a small town off the mountaintop, where the townsmen and women scurry about their day; in preparation for visitors of their town to join in on sheer delight. The land is known as Pisgah, named after the mountain in which it resides. Visitors of the town feast on bountiful meals, partake in local folklore, and retreat to their whimsical cottages aligned along the mountainside in which the townspeople cater to the visitors of their town.

Gumball Surprise!
Have you ever felt like you lived two separate lives? Where unexpectedly, at the flip of a switch, the life that was so familiar to you two seconds ago, suddenly echoes down a tunnel to the pits of your past? Like the childhood euphoric feeling you’d get when magic was created by sticking a quarter into the gumball machine, and with just one twist of the handle, you’d hear that gumball drop while holding high expectations in the delight and anticipation that at end of the long tunnel you’d receive the gumball flavor you were hoping for. Those moments of excitement that you feel as you hear the gumball rattle down that tunnel, hearing each twist and turn along the way, while your eyes light up in curiosity to find out if the results will live up to your expectations. The thrill and rush you get as you hear that gumball quickly approach the bottom, where you’ll soon lift, with your tiny little hands, the door that will reveal your gumball surprise. Except, all the sudden you hear the gumball get jammed just moments before it reaches the bottom door. Your parent thinks to jolt it loose, but no matter how much they push and shove and tilt that machine, there’s no prying it loose. Now the only thing you got out of the event is crushed expectations, and a lost quarter. Sure, there will be other opportunities and more gumballs machines, but as a child… in that moment…. you feel as though the opportunity was snatched from you.
