All Saints Day

Today is the day to reflect on those who have gone before us. In doing this research and now attempting to write it all down, I'm realizing that there is a lot that I'm missing. I think about the special people that have established a way of life here in this little town that no one knows. I'm finding it hard to find the right words and it's scary.

I know now why they call them "deadlines". It's because you feel like you're going to die before you finish. It is funny. I am slowly but surely putting all my thoughts together in coherent form. I pray constantly now that I will be able to finish it. I know that there is a lot of people depending on me to finish on time. Sometimes it feels as if there is just too much pressure.

I tell myself today that I will put down everything in a rough draft. I can't worry about word structure now. I need to put it all down. My mind wanders again to those saints that have sacrificed all to make sure I have something to remember.
