I can do it in a minute,
What the hell,
Or you can be ready to help me with what I need you to do,
You are there to service other peoples' processes,
To be given your own slim extra time on your hands,
To try to put your life back together,
On our watch precious though it was,
Bide by what we tell you to do,
And let go of the freedom that you thought you had.

Love is often described as one of the most beautiful experiences in life, yet it is also one of the most complicated. It can lift us to unimaginable heights of happiness and connection, only to sometimes leave us in a place of pain and self-reflection. The journey of love, whether it lasts a lifetime or a fleeting moment, teaches us more about ourselves than perhaps anything else.

The Light Turns
It's Tuesday 7:13 a.m. A cold and clear November morning awaits Ray on his morning commute. Ray rubs his hands together in the front seat of his Subaru. He turns the air temperature up, but keeps the air on low until the air warms up. He looks at the backup camera screen and reverses the Subaru out of his driveway onto Trimble Road.

This seems a bit disjointed. It's like you're being told what to do with no real context. I've had similar experiences where I'm expected to follow orders without much say. It can be frustrating.
