I died... or I nearly died... I think. 

Now, I'm traveling to realms I never knew existed.

The purpose? To learn empathy for others, and how to become  a better person, all due to a crazy wish I made on New Year's Eve. 

Now, I'm bouncing from realm to realm at the hands of my hot mentor, who told me I can't fall in love with him. What a thing to say.

I have one year to learn the lessons of twelve virtues in twelve months... if I want my wish to come true... and if I don't want to die.

As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for.

My Crazy New Year's Wish

Inside, I did as my mother had instructed me and washed my hands, then I went into the kitchen to set the table. But when I got to the kitchen, I was too short to reach the cabinet.


"Tasha, you're only eight years old," Stellan said. 


I gave him a dirty look and then smiled, knowing there was more than one way to skin a cat. So, I pulled a chair over to the cabinet, climbed up, and....


"Tasha! What do you think you're doing?" Mom asked behind me, causing me to jump.


Stellan laughed, leaning against the refrigerator. "There will be a lot of things that you're used to doing that you won't be able to do as a child."


"Mom!" I said, practically dropping the plate I was holding. "You almost caused me to drop this plate!"


A crease formed between her eyes, taking the plate from my hand. "You haven't answered my question, young lady. What are you doing?"


"I'm setting the table." I reached for the plate, but Mom held fast.
