The moment you recognize that you will always stand alone in a battlefield is the most terrifying moment of your life.
For it is the death of expectation.
That is the moment you stop looking behind your shoulder with that glimmer of hope that someone will be there to fight beside you. Or rescue you.
So fear not.
Allow it, instead, to be the most exalting moment of your life. Because that is the moment when you recognize, finally and irrevocably, your own strength.
And then when you look back again, you understand. You stood alone, always.
YOU fought all your battles.
And you survived. You may have lost a limb or two. You may have been trampled on. You may even have been defeated. But in the end, you always survived. Because you did not lose your will.
So next time you find yourself standing in the middle of this battlefield called life,do not look behind you.
For remember?
There is no one there.
Stand tall.
Hold your head high.
Raise your weapon.
And fight.
Alone.
For YOU are all you ever needed.
