The Game of Life

      These past couple of years have been the most trying. During this time I have learned quite a bit about life.I have learned that innocence has an expiration date. As children we are gifted with the ability to be naive and gullible, and to have the audacity to believe the world is a wonderful place. As I am growing and being forced out of my innocence and into the cruel cold world I have also been given the misfortune of having to learn the truths about life, having to question if all that I was taught to believe were lies.
      I have been told that I have an active imagination, but how does one begin to imagine half the things I've seen, and endured?
