Purgatory

"For every action force, there is an equal and opposite reaction force." - Sir Isaac Newton, 1687.

Could you really forget war? Death? Your own loss of control? Or do you think it will manifest again? Forever?
That is something up to you to decide, as you live and breathe, a quiet life or an exciting one. Who knows where the road leads, where the destination resides, or where the start and end are. Your own life is what you make of it, whether you choose to or not. Control is something that can be given, learned or taken away.
You can one day wake up to the smell of warm coffee and a smile, and the next, holding the barrel of a gun stained with dirt and blood.
Either you adapt or die.
So choose wisely how you see and act. Nothing will ever go the way you think. For what you see is not what you hear, and what you touch is not what you feel.
