... an intruder if I joined in.
My parents called once a week and I talked to my boyfriend everyday for awhile. A feeling of distance seemed to come between my parents and I. After the initial 'how are you' and the weather conditions at each location there just wasn't much to say. Instead of independent I was beginning to feel detached.
When my parents asked what I wanted for Christmas I went blank. I felt blank. Christmas was all around me lit up in neon Santas, reindeer and palm trees covered in lights, but I had no emotional thoughts about it. Something was missing or maybe I was coming down ...

us start at the most logical place to begin, the beginning.
What is reality?
Well, there are many explanations and theories about this, but I based

... scriptures,
but just plain old common stories.
Even if it was a religious scripture, what did this man do wrong?
