Very content despite the fact there is a mountain of works left to do. Great way to start a week. Thumb up for myself.

My mind is still pondering upon the thoughts, the emotions soar so high yet sadly it is.

An excerpt from "First Lord's Fury" by Jim Butcher:

"I was right," the Queen said, her voice heavy and rough. "There is a strength in the bonds between you."
"Yes," Tavi said simply.
"My daughter who lives in the far Canea...she will never understand that."
"No."
"Is it not strange, that though I know her failure to see it is a weakness, though I know that she woul kill me upon sight, that I want her to live? To prosper?"
"Not so strange," Tavi said.
The Queen closed her eye and nodded. She opened it agin, and there was a tear tracking down her face. "I tried to be what I was meant to be, Father. It was never personal."
"We're beyond that now," Tavi said. "It ends here, and now. You know that."
She was still for a moment, before asking, ver quietly, "Will you make me suffer?"
"No," he said, as gently as he could.

It's both sad and incredible how human emotions are. The capability to both love and hate. We are only what we are meant to be. I love this quote.

I guess I'm gonna spend the rest of the day pondering upon this quote and the sadness it left me. She was only what she meant to be. Despite the number of people she kills, she grew a heart. She was only meant to provide a future for her children.
