Months she had spent pensively pacing and wringing her hands as her mind whirred at the thought of this day, but she had known without knowing that she’d be ready, when the time came. She had known all along.
A warm breeze tickled her arms, and a calmness washed through her core. The quiet around her quietened her soul and a smile crept upon her lips. This was it. It was now.ย With her head held high, she marched towards her greatest fear and she knew, finally, that nothing could stop her.
Thanks Bikurgurl for the prompt, and William Stitt for the photo.
