In a state of total abandonment, Sherina lived her life on a brighter side of a grim reality--inside the laughter, the
companionship; the early morning breakfast time teasing, the late night conversation--before they would each resign to
putting it all to rest. Thier lives together lasted until the dawn of darkness. Under the painful blade of fate,
the heartbreak of suffering that fell in the midnight would separate them, severing lives, seering ties and
ending the bonds that had once bound them.
Though there was no evidence of peril, nothing that would allow Sherina to anticipate the tumultuous direction
of her future, in the hours she spent working, asherina began to sift through files and messages, returned
phone calls and bringing not much else to fruition. In one moment of monotonous routine, Sherina opened a
bag kept by her desk and began to peel off pages of a diary that had belonged to her aunt. The diary was extremely
old and had become a favorite trinket passed around with familiarity to each member. Sherina shared with her
siblings the knowledge of thier familial heritage captured on the pages of time.

Sherina read over each word, pondering carefully thier meaning. Sinking carefully into the message, Sherina began
to stare as though something struck her interest. suddenly she lept to her feet and walked away from her desk.
she grabbed her bag and headed out the door.
The front door of her suburban home is flung open and Sherina charges up the hallway to the study. there, in an 19th
century eterge' was a box that contained films made by family members and were there to inform thier loved ones of thier personal
and private business affairs. The films contained information which would be required at such time these members met
thier demise.
Reaching in the drawer, with her slinder, model-like hand, Sherian pulled out a file box marked "On Dasher".
Sherina watched the her aunt speak as the film rolled for 15 minutes. By the end of the tape, Sherina would have learned
something she had never known about her aunt--that, in her codified manner of speaking, her aunt had become Sherina's harbinger
of hope, offering, in her message, a code that Sherina believed she could decode: "...don't let hope
come for you. You go to it. You are traveling on a pre-ordained course. Hose a, you must choose what
you want and if you believe, it can be yours."
