My name is Emily. I am a twenty-year-old woman who has been wandering through this forest for days now. My journey began with excitement and anticipation, but it has since turned into one of desperation and fear.
I set out on this trip alone, determined to prove to myself that I was capable of overcoming any obstacle that came my way. However, as I trekked deeper into the forest, I realized just how unprepared I was for such a journey.
The rain has made the ground muddy and slippery, making it difficult for me to move around without getting stuck or losing my footing. The trees have become a source of both comfort and fear as they provide shelter from the elements but also make me feel isolated and alone.
As night falls, I find myself huddled under a tree with only a backpack filled with supplies to keep me warm. It's in these moments that I am forced to confront my own vulnerability and mortality.
Despite everything, I am determined not to give up. I will keep trying, even when it feels like all hope is lost. Because at the end of the day, the only person who can truly determine my fate is myself.
