Hi
I know I disappeared for a while… my life got super crazy. And I was struggling. But I’m doing better.
The first too Windrunner ideals were pretty easy. I’m the oldest sibling. Protecting those who can’t do it themselves is ingrained in my BEING.
But I’ve had people who have hurt me.
Deaply.
And unlike Kaladin, I don’t hate them, I don’t know if I ant anyone tbqh, but I thought about it, and I realized, that even though I will have scars, and pain, and tainted memories, that I still would protect.
And so, I think finally, I can say my third ideal.
“I will always protect even those who have hurt me. Even those who have hurt my family. Who taint the world with cruelty. Because there is no healing without a measure of safety first.”
This one took me a long time. I don’t know how long it’ll take me to reach the fourth. Honestly, that might be the one about protecting myself too, instead of the acceptance one, bc I’ve never really had too much trouble with the latter. But the former… sometimes it’s hard to remember that I DESERVE SAFTEY TOO.
Journey before pancakes, y’all
