MY BAG OF STONES

THE COMMANDER

By Brandon DuffinsPublished about a year ago 1 min read
(BDOT BOT ON HIS JOURNEY)

THIS ONE WILL BE QUICK, BECAUSE I WAS TOLD I HAVE WORK TO DO; A WAYS TO GO FROM HERE. I MUST PREPARE MYSELF FOR PAIN.

WHAT'S THE OLD SAYING!? "WHAT EVER DOESNT KILL ME, MAKES ME STRONGER!

NOW... IN ORDER TO GET THERE, I MUST FACE WHAT SLOWS ME DOWN.

AND ON MY BACK THERES A BAG OF STONES, CHAINED AND LOCKED AROUND MY WAIST.

EACH STONE REPRESENTS A DIFFERENT BATTLE THAT CARRY A SPECIFIC WEIGHT.

MAYBE OVER 100 STONES IN MY BAG, I CANNOT TELL. THEY ALL MUST BE REMOVED; DELT WITH! IN A MANNER THAT RENDERS PEACE.

IMPRISIONED WITH THESE STONES AT THE START OF MY RACE, IN HOPES FOR NEW STRENGTH THESE STONES GIVE ME FAITH!
