“A Time I Knew Myself” by Nicole Jasmine Stoffels

Submitted to Contest #101

My mind is haunted by the image of myself in the mirror. Tears appear to be burning in my eyes. What is the source of my anguish?

“A brave young lady who dared to change her fortune.” by Nicole Jasmine Stoffels

Submitted to Contest #98

There is a saying that goes, "Life is full of difficulties, and changing your luck is even more difficult." At least, that's what I thought. My fortune has been deteriorating since I was a small child. Then there were questions about comprehension, such as "what is luck?" "Luck is a good luck charm, a symbol of your life, a symbol that has been able to rescue me from my misery since I was a small child." My mother never loved me; she despised the sight of me because I reminded her of my dreadful father, who abandoned us with nothing but a...
