Once upon a time there was a girl whom ventured into the forest. She knew without a doubt that she would like the forest but she didn't realize how quickly that like would turn to love. The days passed by rapidly and with each step she plunged further and further until she was no longer on the path she once begun. Slowly the weather started changing. The warm, bright, and sunny days grew shorter and shorter. Each day it became colder and the storm grew closer.
It began to rain. The girl decided she could wait it out. She didn't think the rain would last more than a few days. This time she was right. After a few cold, dreary nights the clouds parted. It was warm again but, the warmth wouldn't stay. It would rain again, sometimes a few days, other times a few weeks but each time she waited it out, waited for the sun to come back. As days and weeks passed the weather became unpredictable, she never knew whether it would dreary or bright. Then the storm came. This storm was different from the others. It was more harsh. It was colder and the rain flooded everything around her. She finally decided that she was done, she couldn't wait for the sun to come back this time. She wanted out, it wasn't worth it, the sun never stayed long enough anymore and the days kept getting colder and more severe.
She started to make her way out but she didn't realize until that moment how deep she had gotten. She searched for the path she began on but it was no where to be seen. She found herself walking in circles and the paths she did find never lead her to better days. After searching down a beaten path, she found herself worse off than she had been before. It wasn't until this moment she understood just how lost she was.
