Delaware I am a 21 year old college student who is majoring in Human Services . I have recently started writing again and it has been a long time since I have in my childhood. I use to write about a lot of things that were sad and depressing but now I have discovered hope , new meaning in life and my purpose so I am trying to right from a place of freedom and openess.

I've always wondered how each step could sit so silently, watching as the ceiling lights bounced back and forth ; from white wall to white wall. I've also wondered how they could wait so patiently in the shadows while those lights and those that passed through stole the glory of it all. Is it because they've accepted their role and realized that they've been stepped on so many times it's pointless to complain? Or is it because they know their location of isolation serves a greater purpose than most could contain? I would think that it is safe to assume that each inference is true because if you were destined to be that step for people to reach their next level in life (by stepping up and over you) you'd think it true too.. Now remember this is much deeper than a simple stair well , lights and some white walls. This is a scenario describing a girls life, who found her life in loosing her life for a greater cause..
