First Footprint

The human journey from childhood to the early middle years begins in the cradle and molds the person you become. You evolve from memories of places, family and friends, the angst of adolescence, first love and a glimpse of the future. You emerge in the adult years of work and play, love and loss, creating your own family and your place in the world. Open these pages and travel through a poetic world that will make you laugh and cry, smile and sigh as you follow the first footprints of life. HIGH SCHOOL DREAMSCAPE Paradise or purgatory Paradox and perfidy Acne and angst Agony and ecstasy Reduced to nothingness by selective memory and age Rendered meaningless by time and experience Yet lingering in the soul, bundles of unhealed wounds
