1. The picket fence had stood for years without any issue.

That's all
it was. A simple, white, picket fence. Why it had all of a sudden
become a lightning rod within the community was still
unbelievable to most. Yet a community that had once lived in
harmony was now divided in bitter hatred and it had everything
to do with the white picket fence.

2. The red glow of tail lights indicating another long drive home
from work after an even longer 24-hour shift at the hospital. The
shift hadn’t been horrible but the constant stream of patients
entering the ER meant there was no downtime. She had some of
the “regulars” in tonight with new ailments they were sure were
going to kill them. It’s amazing what a couple of Tylenol and a
physical exam from the doctor did to eliminate their pain,
nausea, headache, or whatever other mild symptoms they had.
Sometimes she wondered if all they really needed was some
interaction with others and a bit of the individual attention they
received from the nurses.

3. He was after the truth. At least, that's what he told himself. He

believed it, but any rational person on the outside could see he
was lying to himself. It was apparent he was really only after his
own truth that he'd already decided and was after this truth
because the facts didn't line up with the truth he wanted. So he
continued to tell everyone he was after the truth oblivious to the
real truth sitting right in front of him.

4. Brenda never wanted to be famous. While most of her friends

dreamed about being famous, she could see the negative aspects
that those who wanted to be famous seemed to ignore. The fact
that you could never do anything in public without being
mobbed and the complete lack of privacy was something that she
never wanted to experience. She also had no desire to have
 strangers speculating about every aspect of her life and what
each thing she did was supposed to mean. Brenda was perfectly
happy with her anonymous life where she could do exactly as
she wanted without anyone else giving a damn. Thus, her
overnight Internet celebrity was not something she was thrilled
about as her friends told her how lucky she was.

5. The irony of the situation hadn't escaped her. She had taken
years to sculpt the perfect persona with the perfect look that she
shared on Instagram. She knew her hundreds of thousands of
followers envied that life she showed and stayed engaged with
her because they wanted that life too. The truth was that she
wanted the perfect life she portrayed more than any of her fans.
The fact was that despite all the perfection she shared on social
media, her life was actually more of a mess than most.

6. It was cloudy outside but not really raining. There was a light
sprinkle at most and there certainly wasn't a need for an
umbrella. This hadn't stopped Sarah from pulling her umbrella
out and opening it. It had nothing to do with the weather or the
potential rain later that day. Sarah used the umbrella to hide.

7. Sitting in the sun, away from everyone who had done him harm
in the past, he quietly listened to those who roamed by. He felt at
peace in the moment, hoping it would last, but knowing the
reprieve would soon come to an end. He closed his eyes, the sun
beating down on face and he smiled. He smiled for the first time
in as long as he could remember.

8. At that moment he had a thought that he'd never imagine he'd

consider. "I could just cheat," he thought, "and that would solve
the problem." He tried to move on from the thought but it was
 persistent. It didn't want to go away and, if he was honest with
himself, he didn't want it to.

9. Terrance knew that sometimes it was simply best to stay out of

it. He kept repeating this to himself as he watched the scene
unfold. He knew that nothing good would come of him getting
involved. It was far better for him to stay on the sidelines and
observe. He kept yelling this to himself inside his head as he
walked over to the couple and punched the man in the face.

10. There was a time when this wouldn't have bothered her. The fact
that it did actually bother her bothered her even more. What had
changed in her life that such a small thing could annoy her so
much for the entire day? She knew it was ridiculous that she
even took notice of it, yet she was still obsessing over it as she
tried to fall asleep.

she wanted without anyone else giving a damn. Thus, her
overnight Internet celebrity was not something she was thrilled
about as her friends told her how lucky she was.

5. The irony of the situation hadn't escaped her. She had taken
years to sculpt the perfect persona with the perfect look that she
shared on Instagram. She knew her hundreds of thousands of
followers envied that life she showed and stayed engaged with
her because they wanted that life too. The truth was that she
wanted the perfect life she portrayed more than any of her fans.
The fact was that despite all the perfection she shared on social
media, her life was actually more of a mess than most.
 6. It was cloudy outside but not really raining. There was a light
sprinkle at most and there certainly wasn't a need for an
umbrella. This hadn't stopped Sarah from pulling her umbrella
out and opening it. It had nothing to do with the weather or the
potential rain later that day. Sarah used the umbrella to hide.

7. Sitting in the sun, away from everyone who had done him harm
in the past, he quietly listened to those who roamed by. He felt at
peace in the moment, hoping it would last, but knowing the
reprieve would soon come to an end. He closed his eyes, the sun
beating down on face and he smiled. He smiled for the first time
in as long as he could remember.

8. At that moment he had a thought that he'd never imagine he'd

consider. "I could just cheat," he thought, "and that would solve
the problem." He tried to move on from the thought but it was
persistent. It didn't want to go away and, if he was honest with
himself, he didn't want it to.

9. Terrance knew that sometimes it was simply best to stay out of

it. He kept repeating this to himself as he watched the scene
unfold. He knew that nothing good would come of him getting
involved. It was far better for him to stay on the sidelines and
observe. He kept yelling this to himself inside his head as he
walked over to the couple and punched the man in the face.

10. There was a time when this wouldn't have bothered her. The fact
that it did actually bother her bothered her even more. What had
changed in her life that such a small thing could annoy her so
much for the entire day? She knew it was ridiculous that she
even took notice of it, yet she was still obsessing over it as she
tried to fall asleep.
11. The picket fence had stood for years without any issue. That's all
it was. A simple, white, picket fence. Why it had all of a sudden
become a lightning rod within the community was still
unbelievable to most. Yet a community that had once lived in
harmony was now divided in bitter hatred and it had everything
to do with the white picket fence.

12. The red glow of tail lights indicating another long drive home
from work after an even longer 24-hour shift at the hospital. The
shift hadn’t been horrible but the constant stream of patients
entering the ER meant there was no downtime. She had some of
the “regulars” in tonight with new ailments they were sure were
going to kill them. It’s amazing what a couple of Tylenol and a
physical exam from the doctor did to eliminate their pain,
nausea, headache, or whatever other mild symptoms they had.
Sometimes she wondered if all they really needed was some
interaction with others and a bit of the individual attention they
received from the nurses.

13. He was after the truth. At least, that's what he told himself. He
believed it, but any rational person on the outside could see he
was lying to himself. It was apparent he was really only after his
own truth that he'd already decided and was after this truth
because the facts didn't line up with the truth he wanted. So he
continued to tell everyone he was after the truth oblivious to the
real truth sitting right in front of him.

14. Brenda never wanted to be famous. While most of her friends

dreamed about being famous, she could see the negative aspects
that those who wanted to be famous seemed to ignore. The fact

never wanted to experience. She also had no desire to have
