My love was taken away, and I will never get that back. I exist, and I play my guitar to try and ease the pain. My life and all my dreams had died with her in the accident. There are no words that can describe how I’ve felt the past year. About a year ago, I lost the love of my life, my fiancée, in a tragic car accident. After finding my fiancé and my sister together, I moved from Seattle to Santa Monica to start a new life of independence and to focus on my passion for photography, man-free. Cheating was all I grew up with, and I vowed never to live the life my mother did. He would even stoop as low as to take me and my sister with him on his trysts when we were younger. I grew up with a father who was a womanizer and cheated on my mother every moment he had the chance. That was until I found my fiancé having sex with my sister in the church moments before I was supposed to walk down the aisle. My name is Lily Gilmore, and I was supposed to be getting married today. When I couldn’t escape the house, I’d close my bedroom door, check on my private zoo and play my favorite records-Earth, Wind and Fire, Stevie Wonder, Jean-Luc Ponty, Chick Corea and Weather Report. I explored the natural world for hours on end and collected fish and insects. In the end, they did the best they could. When their yelling got loud, nature became a portal out of the chaos of our home. It made their lives extremely difficult, and alcohol became a coping mechanism. There were a number of issues that affected them including systemic racism in America. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I understood why. My parents raised my brother, sister and I well, but had problems with alcohol. In many ways, these separate events made it possible for me to become the conservationist I am today and to understand the mental and physical benefits of having a relationship with the natural world. James Meredith became the first African American student admitted to the then-segregated University of Mississippi. At the same time, the Civil Rights Movement was making great strides. Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring was published, and it became a catalyst for the environmental movement. The year I was born, 1962, America was undergoing great social change. Nature and I have been constant companions throughout my life. Not everything needs a twist ending, especially one so shoddily supported by the story. Personally, I’m well over this trend of authors trying to emulate Gone Girl without understanding why Gone Girl was so effective. But that just raises more questions and makes the twist thinner: why marry her in the first place if you don’t love her? Is Mark meant to be a psychopath? Why don’t we see more psychopathic behavior from him, then? There certainly wasn’t enough in Mark’s behavior for me to buy that ending as believable. Presumably, the conclusion we’re meant to draw is that he never actually loved her, especially given this “look” he got in his eyes as he died. That means there’s not time for any major change of heart on his part, whether it’s deeming Erin a liability or falling out of love with her. We know Mark hired Patrick to terrorize Erin and get her off the scent only a day or two after they got home from their honeymoon.
