BOOM! That was the exhilarating sound of my first shot‚ and believe it or not I had actually hit something. It all started one morning in 1868 when I was home alone. I was only 8 years old‚ my father was dead and there was no one to hunt for the family. After an exciting experience as a young girl i went on to perform in carnivals and inspire other young girls to do great things.

Do not lose hope!” Suddenly a squirrel scampered across a cedar branch. The youngest was quick‚ he raised his bow‚ arrow drawn‚ and shot. The squirrel was too quick‚ the arrow missed. Several days later‚ hunger spread throughout the village. The three hunters had failed to collect enough food for the winter. Many died‚ some went mad with starvation

Okay‚ so there’s this place called the Sky World‚ and there lives a man and his wife who is expecting a child. And there’s a tree in the center of the Sky World that no being is allowed to eat from. *sounds familliar?* Don’t touch the tree‚ don’t eat from the tree‚ don’t pee on the tree‚ don’t look at the tree‚ don’t think about the tree! Well guess what? The wife is having her weird craving as most pregnant women do and she demands of her husband to get the tree’s roots so she can eat them. He’s

Through The Eyes Of A Child As Laura set off on a short walk down her street and around the cul-de-sac‚ her thoughts centred on the pain in her joints‚ namely her knees and lower back. Like taking a bitter pill‚ she reminded herself that while unpleasant‚ engaging in this gentle exercise was supposed to help. She wasn’t prepared to pay the fees to join a gym‚ as her doctor recommended‚ nor was she inclined to believe she’d be committed to driving to the gym everyday so she could walk on a treadmill
