Three paths were laid out before of her, each would take her
in different directions. The left had more opportunity and was exciting, but
was fraught with higher risk. The right was safer, but secure and had the
potential to be dull. The middle, now that was the unknown. Did she have to
choose either one or the other? Could she not have excitement risk tempered
with security?
Without looking to either the left or the right, she forged
on ahead. She would make her own path and not chose what had been expected of
her from either side. Eliana wanted
safety and security but on her terms. There was room for excitement there, and
opportunity, but it would on her terms only and not someone else's.
This was her life, and she was going to start living it. No
one else was going to make that choice for her.

This tale feels like part of a larger piece and has a depth to match. Good stuff Miranda!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I struggled with this one. It isn't anything larger... yet, but who knows! :)
