I’ve been working towards regulating my ups and downs, recently. It wasn’t long ago when a mentor of mine asked me how life works and gave me a choice between three hand gestures: one with her hand going up a slope, another sliding down, and one waving up and down, up and down, like a rollercoaster.... | English | NL | bfadd1bf5f19b9bc61222e7c02209922c36f2fb9ba05335036c90848fd91b4ae |

They said the chalet was haunted. But that wasn't what bothered me. It was the narrow stretch of beach that formed a simple crescent between where we were and the nearest mangrove tree. As I ensconced myself onto the warm, prickly sand, trying to read, all I can think about was how Jackson died.

There’s a picture in my mind. It’s a brown, portrait photograph, in pride of place in the twilit cottage room. It is of a soldier killed in the 1914-1918 war.
