One day you wake up and face the sober reality that
you are older than you thought you are, Jackie
Landers woke up on the morning of her 35th birthday,
faced with her failures, she didn't need reminding,
she thinks about them every day; is it time to move
on from her dreams? Like chasing the horizon, she
never really gets there; one more year, if she
doesn't make it she'll quit, she's betting it all,
failing would be a fate worse than suicide, it would
be admitting that a spark inside her has died, a
chapter concluded without a happy ending.
