She grew up a little excited by the storms of life...but from her eyes you could see how frightened she was , lacking control, scared of people and everyone around her. Scott, her best friend would always try and remind her of her abilities and that she shouldn't let fear hold her back but sadly his words did not work well enough for her to fly like the others.
It was as if they were too weak and she was too broken to really grasp them.
She spent years attempting to mold in the way that she wanted and loved but nothing worked,
She felt layers of unsettling emotions.....
'I can't do this anymore" she whispered to herself
"You're resilient,...convince yourself that you can and you will but the moment you tell yourself you can't then you'll never achieve anything " His tone walked the line between bitterness and incredulity. It was Scott.
"You?" She asked amazed
She was lost for words,despite of her knowing him almost all her life for the first time in forever she felt free.
In a calm, unhurried voice
"I didn't expect you" she said
Scott chuckled at himself "I know,but I guess I came by at the right time"
"Yeah" she said a half-smile in place like a casual piece of armor
Scott's sentence had a practiced feel and she kept on repeating to herself as though she's never heard of any of those words before
And just as the famous quote says
"The magic in new beginnings is truly the most powerful of them all"
It wasn't different from her, she finally felt that she had become something greater than anything.
All along, through the pain and turmoil and hopelessness, just one word
"Resilience " has become her wings.
