Instructions should be the first thing one reads, its like learning from other people's mistakes, it can save you time, where you can further the knowledge on the endeavor you're undertaking instead of committing the same mishaps they did. Read them, someone took time to write them, at least give them the courtesy.
The configurations she had made were supposed to be flawless. Their flight depended on it. Weight was the most important thing in an air ship. So why was the nose of the ship dipping so ominously down. At this angle, they would be speared by the approaching peaks.
A lot can change in one minute. Food can be microwaved, a plot twist in your favorite show, or getting attacked by dive bombing beetles. A minute can be sad or happy, and a minute can change your whole life.
Fractures can be created in any form. Physically, in bones, like when my friend and I raced down the road after our fellow scouts. The girl we ran after was in a wheelchair, but in her first 5k ever. We were so excited we tripped and my friend fell on me, fracturing my wrist. Fractures can also come metaphorically. Like when they crackle through your life. Since I left high school, my life has been subjected to a lot of fractures. Mostly self inflicted, but still scarring just the same. But I've used my metaphorical putty to fill them in, made with tears, sleepless nights, shoulders of friend's I've sobbed on, the love of people I didn't deserve, and my own hard work at healing them. But even though the fractures have been filled, they will never be the same again. My life will be forever marred by these fractures, but I don't think they take away anything. If anything, the fractures that have come into my life have arced across it beautifully, like webs of history that I can trace back to the person I used to be. I will never be her again, but the woman I am now, is so much stronger. Fractures don't make you weak, they force you to absorb so much more into yourself, to fill the cracks, but with all of that, you will never be alone, you will be stronger.
