When Peace Turns to Fear

The snow was falling and I could see the patterns of footprints all around our driveway.  It was a very peaceful January and my midterm grades were great.  The house seemed quieter than usual when my parents got home from an outing.  They were acting different than normal, mom was crying and dad had that look in his eyes.  You know that look that freezes your body in its place, colder than standing on Chicago's navy pier in January.  I will never forget that day when I heard the news, my life would forever be changed.

Can you remember a time of peace before the storm?  Let me know how you felt before a life changing event.  Can you remember at the exact moment when peace turned to fear?  I would love to hear from all of you.  Please post!
