Young Adult Science Fiction

Free from the spaceship and reunited with Samuai, Asher should be happy. But thoughts of her dead family are weighing heavily on her mind and things worsen when temper problems in the camp lead to a murder. Freedom has surely come with a price. Then when Asher volunteers to retrieve the drug needed to calm people down things spiral out of control as tension ignites, loyalties are put into question, jealousy rears its head, and sparks fly. All bets are off when a rumor of a second ship hits close to home. Have the aliens returned? Is this the end of everything Asher has ever known?

Re: Temper

I enjoy just walking away and clearing my mind. Doing something to relax,
whether it be read a book or just call a friend so that I can take my mind of
things and come back later with a clear head and maybe a new way of
looking at things!

I meditate or take a nap to stop thinking. Living in the city, no matter where you are, it's pretty hard to really escape, so being asleep or meditating and going deep into your own mind, it's pretty much like you're in another world.

Retiring to my bedroom chaise or my patio rocker with a book and tea while soft music plays gives me the time to regain my equilibrium. My family knows that unless the house is on fire or someone is bleeding, it is best to let me be.

Yesterday at the prayer shawl group meeting someone said she
liked Belgian chocolate. I like to spend some time crocheting.

I go shopping and eat sushi. I can't read because events keep
going through my head and I can't concentrate.

I read a book, take a long shower, or sit quietly with some soft music.

I read. It is my escape. It takes me anywhere I want to go. Can be to
London in the 1800's or New York a month ago. It's a great was to escape!

For me, drawing or painting is a good way for me to escape! Or a great book, or
a good nap, can do the trick too ;)

I enjoy a hot bath and crafting!

Take a deep breath & think: Patience, calm, reward!

I try to visualize a good outcome for the situation. If
that doesn't work, I drop imaginary water balloons on all
those causing me problems.
