Life, a crazy concept, right?

Holly is a teenager, one in many in this world in fact. She woke up and did her usual routine, Shower, change, and off to that dreadful place. She walks outside of her house, in the dim light of Liverpool and her mom continues to bring her to school, a typical day. She walks the halls with her friends, getting ready for first period. As she wanders around she reaches her friend, and exclaims, "I can't wait for the day to end already, can't you?" And like every teenager or child, they agree. First and second period goes by like a breeze, but third period is a whole new story! Who likes math, it's soo hard. Calculations here and there, equations, geometry, what are we going to do, start calculating a problem in the middle of Asda? She mumbles words about how preposterous math is to begin with, and continues to study hall, where she studies for her English Exam next period. "A hyperbole is an extreme exaggeration, no, wait, yes" She murmurs to herself. Stressing, she heads across the hall into English, clutching her binder, not realizing that she sat down and the exam was now being passed out. "Hyperbole... extreme exaggeration, no that's onomatopoeia, is it? No, I know this, I know this..." She did know that, but under extreme pressure, one can forget the easiest things. Life, that's what we call it.

If you look up the definition of life on google, it will say: "the existence of an individual human being or animal" But that doesn't go into full detail, does it? It's the end of the day for Holly, and she's back to wandering around the halls, searching for her friend. "You have your outfit picked out?" Holly states as she examines her friends outfit, "It's honestly so cute, we're matching oh my god!" They laugh and jump into the back seat of Holly's moms car, excited and ready, cat ears on top of their heads. Singing at the top of their lungs "Something bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman!!!" That laugh that hurts your ribs, and the glitter in their eyes, they were having the time of their lives. Holly hops out of the car, followed by her mom and friend and quickly rush over to the stadium, as the crowd swelled with more people. "Alright meet me in the lobby after the concert is over, love you!" Her mom yells over the loud crowd.

"You makee me feel like a dangerous womann" The blur of the moment, they're now in their seats, awaiting the show, lights flashing. 10 minutes, 5 minutes, 3 minutes, two minutes, BAM! Grande's on stage, singing her famous dangerous purpose tour! You make me feel like a dangerous woman, something bout you... Smiling, Holly turns to Erin, her friend, "Something bout you!!" Soon Erin joins in on the laughter, and they sing in unison with the rest of the 20,000 people "You!! Make me feel like a dangerous woman!!" The energy in the stadium was clear joy, "Makes me feel like a dangerous woman" Smiling, the lights turn on, Boom. What was that, what... Holly and Erin hear others to run and get to their parents, people are tumbling over others, running, dashing, a day of laughter turned into a total nightmare. Holly's in her car with Erin, Erin's mom and hers, they're shaking now full of terror. Taxi drivers are bringing people home for free, people are opening their doors for the struggling, the lost, the wounded. Life. Life isn't supposed to be easy, you're supposed to learn and help others, and with devastation comes a new beginning. Although what happened on May 22nd 2017 was terrible for everyone, it brought us together in many ways. This tragedy allowed us to realize what we can achieve together, how we can help one another. We opened our doors to help the wounded, we searched for the lost, we supported the people in pain, the ones who have lost, or the ones who are now gone. In a world with so many people, we cannot be in unison, we cannot be one of the same, we are all different. But when something tragic happens, we all know what to do, we are to help eachother, and we all have one thing inside us that no matter how small it is, it's there. That is hope.
 
I'm so glad you did this, such a beautiful ending. <3
 
Truly beautiful and inspiring <3
