Hey everyone! I'm back and with a new story to boot! But

don't worry, maybe I'll actually finish this one, depending

on if you like it or not. Well, Enjoy!

The Road Less Taken

By: Meghan McLaws

Prologue- The Road

Sometimes, when I look back on my life I realize that

it could be a lot worse. Of course, it could have been a lot

better, too. But I'm not complaining, not today.

Everyone says that the road less taken is the road never

journeyed, but I don't believe that. This saying always makes me

think of that musical, Into the woods. You know the one about the

Baker and his wife and Little Red Riding Hood, and Jack. Where they

walk through the woods trying to find what they need to have a better

life, and they figure that their life is better because of the woods

and the road not taken. Well, I can parallel my life to the Baker:

even though I've lost people most dear to me, I've gotten so much from

the experience.

Am I confusing you? Good. It wouldn't be much of a story if

you weren't confused from the beginning. As I sit here, writing the

beginning of my story at a whole new start of my life, I can't help

but miss those who aren't here today. But I really can't change that,

so I write on.

Maybe I should stop the confusion and start my story, for the

beginning, a very good to place to start, or so Maria says. But I've

never been a very predictable person as it is, so I'll start at the

best place I can.
