To Love Again

A decision

She knew that if she did not cast a lot she would be placed among those who forbore the risk of losses and even gains. But her moves were purposeful as she had already calculated the reward or consequence of her actions; she believed in probabilities of percentages. She knew that with the given number of opportunities is a proper chance that she would hit her mark. And with that HOPE she drew the best arrow from her stash, firmly set her eyes on the target, and aimed as if tomorrow relied on that action.

As she waited on a particular split second, her shoulders and elbows were firmly positioned and her fingers were subject to every breath that she had planned.

And with the strength of seven women she released the arrow that had been crafted for that moment, her destiny. As the slender wood whorled through the air, she exhaled and accomplished what she set out to do...to love again.
