The room got darker, his fear filled his body, and the feeling of dread paralyzed him. It was like heavy bricks hanging around his chest. He felt trapped. "What am I going to do?" he thought to himself, unable to think of anything else. He was dizzy, loss of breath, he felt like he was uncomfortably falling in quicksand and that the harder he tried to get out, the deeper he fell. A soothing voice brought him out of the trance he was in. "Honey its going to be okay." It was his mother. "Yeah, don't worry Josh." His sister chimed in. In matter of moments, Josh's pessimistic outlook on the world shattered. Everything became lighter and better. Josh's disposition cheered up and Josh knew having the support of his family whom would always be there for him, that everything would be just fine. Josh is a typical example of a moody teenager and a classic example of how important family is. The example being how no matter what happens to him, what he did, or what he decides to do, his family would support him nonetheless. Ripe at the age of 16, the year where the smallest things gets blown out of proportion and seem like torrential disasters, Josh works to overcome one stress after another. At school, after receiving a grade of an "F," getting into a fight with his best friend, getting detention and finally spraining his ankle in track, he comes home with a vicious cloud over his head. "I am not going to be able to graduate school, I have no social life and my ankle hurts!" Josh grumbled, speaking as if though he had only twenty-four more hours to live. "I really can't do this anymore. I just can't." Josh kept repeating to himself. "I just don't know what to do." He slipped off to an apparent deep depression until his family barged in on his thoughts. His family comforted him and let him know that he would be fine, no matter what he did and that they would be right behind him, pushing him to succeed. You may think that family is just two parents who brought you into this world and siblings you are forced to relate to.
