Lost Sight, Found Strength

The path is so dark and dim, but Julie keeps walking. She is scared, yet her adrenaline makes her look back several times, urging her to walk faster with each step. She wonders why she can't move faster and then realizes it's just her thoughts getting wilder the longer she's on the road. She shouldn't have chosen this path—terrified and confused.

But, I still could see some pictures in my memory, the way Dad still narrating that he's not OD, he fell asleep and high. Then, he thought he was fine. Dad started a new day at the time. He tried to work things out and make his family happy. Then, it's getting better and better, until Dad realized it's just his wishes and he was the truth in Heaven. He did not see it coming. That he died. And, I think he talked to God. Then, things got better. God said he is not dead, yet. And...
