“Where life just isn't fair” by Sidney B.

Submitted to Contest #66

Welcome to Tinpen Harbour, or Tinpen, as everyone calls it, where everyone will follow the same path in life; first, you get born.

“With love comes sacrifice.” by Sidney B.

Submitted to Contest #59

With love comes sacrifice. I know that. I’ve always known that. I saw it when I was younger, with my parents. Small things, though, insignificant most of the time. In fact, I would describe it more as compromise, instead of sacrifice. Sacrifice is when you do something that will make someone else, your partner, in this case, very happy, but yourself not so much. Compromise is what my parents did. Sacrifice is what I did.
