As a single human we are never alone. As a human you are a culture, a planet of life where each individual cell works together to keep their society alive and thriving. Trillions of cells each living their own individual life, experiencing pain, pleasure and death (not to get started…
I could hear the bullets getting real close to me. I looked around, and everyone was dead. "RUN SCHULTZER, RUUUUN", and I ran all I could with three guys shooting at me. I was doing a military drill with my platoon, and my unit were being shot down…
