Alex's Adventure
Once upon a time, in a distant land, there was a young brave adventurer named Alex. He was the son of the village chief and was known for his bravery and intelligence. He always dreamed of going on an adventure and exploring the unknown world beyond his village. One day, Alex decided that it was time for him to embark on a quest to discover the mysteries that lay beyond. He packed his backpack, grabbed his sword and with a heavy heart, said goodbye to his family and friends. After traveling for a few days, Alex stumbled upon the entrance to a mysterious cave. Determined to find out what was inside, he bravely stepped inside the dark cave. As he walked deeper into the cave, Alex found himself in a vast underground chamber. In the distance, he could spot an enormous treasure chest. Undeterred by any obstacles, Alex advanced towards the chest, but at a certain point, he was met with a sudden obstacle. A ferocious dragon appeared out of nowhere. With his adrenaline rushing through his veins, Alex drew out his sword and prepared for battle. The dragon swung his massive spiked tail, causing Alex to duck and dodge as he tried to get closer to it. Finally, Alex managed to get close enough to strike the dragon with his sword, but as he did so, a strange flash of light engulfed him. Suddenly, Alex wasn't in the cave anymore. He found himself in a different land, and everything around him was vastly different. Giant mushrooms and talking animals greeted him everywhere he went. Alex discovered that he had been transported through time and space to a parallel world. With his sword still by his side, Alex knew that this was just the start of his incredible adventure. In this new world that he found himself in, he had to navigate many strange and unpredictable obstacles. He encountered new creatures and met wizards, witches, and giants on his quest to explore and discover everything that this new world had to offer. Through his perseverance and courage, Alex overcame every challenge that lay before him. Finally, after years of exploration and adventure, he found his way back to his village where he was greeted as a hero. He told his family and friends fantastic tales of his incredible adventure into the unknown and everyone listened in awe. From that moment on, Alex knew that his thirst for adventure and discovery would never end as there was still so much to explore in the world.

Hot and Cold
When I think back on my high school days, I remember how cruel we were. To ourselves, to our parents, to each other. I tried to remind myself of that every time Mariah gave me sass or did something stupid, but it didn’t help me understand her. She often said I just didn’t get it, and she was right. They say your brain isn’t developed until your mid-twenties and it must be true, because I can’t remember why we were so cruel, or what logic went into the dumb shit we did. My memories of my young years are glazed with hormones, hot with the conviction that everything was rigged against me. It’s not like I woke up at 26 and thought cool, I’m done cooking now. What a weird ride that was. It’s more like one day I called my dad and realized we weren’t talking past each other anymore. We were finally speaking the same language.

When you held me
You held me without carrying me. Through the years, the difficulties and triumphs, you’ve always been there. Taking care of me when no one else would. How can one express that gift given straight from the heart? The selfless choice to bring me to your world. Tending to me even when your patience often wore thin. Building me up, block by block. Words hardly express my gladness you adopted me. Thank you mom, not by blood, but by bond, for everything. Thank you for taking me in.
