I live my life, one day at a time. A good portion of those days are uneventful,
always falling in the same routine: I wake up, walk to work, work, walk home, then
bum around until I go to bed. Some times I'll hang with my few friends, while other
times I'll just play video games or watch My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
Every so often, something new and interesting happens: I meet an old friend, I find
a dollar on the ground, or I get chased by a stray dog.
Living in a dying city isn't very fun or interesting. This city was once full of
life and color, but now... now most of the houses are sagging, the businesses sit
empty and abandoned, and several open fields lay barren of the once great factories
that helped drive the economy. I had never seen this city during those times in
person, but I have seen pictures. My mother and father lived happy, and they could
only wish the same for me growing up.
Sadly, I cannot say I have achieved that wish of theirs.
