Starting Over

I guess I should introduce myself. I am Christine Genarla, but everyone calls me Christy. I don't mind, actually, I kind of enjoy it. I've always secretly hated my name. It sounds too stuck up. Like a snobby rich person. Christine, go get the limousine, we're going to the ball with the prince. But hey, it could've been worse. In life, the way I look at it, everyone has a miracle happen to them. To some, it's winning the lottery, others it's finding the love of their life. Everybody tells me that it was my miracle to be alive.

But in my mind it was just the opposite.
