Test of Wills

(Sword Stone picture)
To my brothers and sisters look at the imagines and try to feel with your heart on what makes you feel strongest in the darkest of hours what helps you love,power,faith?

You venture through the forest near your town,kingdom or village. Just a friendly walk you are not rich or poor but enjoying life as it is. When you come across a sword sticking out of a stone platform. You walk towards it and feel a sense of peace as words come into your head of what is strength as you look at the legendary weapon?
Is it the measure of a blade to protect or a shield to block attacks, is it the strength of what is in your heart and love for someone or family to honor them always, is it the measure of knowledge in ones mind to raise a race to hope and glory or lead them to safety.
What about family keeping you from the darkness of the abyss. So many answers but they could all be right or wrong. The true answer is it is the person that steps up to the role of Guardian or savior to be the one to answer the question or call to arms or help the ones he or she knows or does not know for one of my lost brothers Thomas always said to me growing up do you need a reason to help someone in need? Thank you for listening to my words brothers and sisters out there I own you and I have your backs till death and on. I promise this on here and in real life.

To all, what would be your words in battle if you were the only man or women fighting and the rest were scared to pick up a sword or axe to fight a long side you? What would be your words to help them gain the strength to fight back for freedom? To gain a place at your side.

You fall a sleep and awaken thinking it is a dream but in reality it is real as you are surrounded by trees and mist. Through the mist steps a beast but not a evil one nor  good what do you say to it the elder of the forest?
