The Warrior Between The Lines - Ecrits Blogophilia Week 16.18 - Rock of Ages

Looking back at my life, my previous writings, the experiences I've gained and the memories I made...

And then sitting here, glancing at everything around me now... 

It all seems so surreal. That everything found here was once me. 

These words all belonged to me; came from me and my life. 

Some make me sad, some proud, and others rejuvenate me. 

There's a whole life lived here. 

Reading through old love stories, knowing that me never saw the husband, house, and two more children coming. 

Those love stories are gone - memories in the wind. 

New ones were created. 

And yet, I feel the need to go back in time... 

Grab that little girl's hand... 

Look her in the eyes and let her know, no matter what, we get out of this, I know, I know we'll never forget... 

You were a warrior. 

We were warriors. 

Boudicca. 

Fierce, outspoken, fiercely protective, and unwilling to quietly accept injustice. 

We did it. 

Welcome home.
