Family is the only thing I really have as a Jedi. I think most would look down on me for it perhaps lecturing about
no attachments. Honestly how can a person give up the feeling of family when it was all you knew?
As a slave, the only things we were truly allowed to have were each other.
When I became a Jedi, my family grew. Not only did I have my mother --if only in my heart-- I also became a part of a brotherhood. The highest masters would deny the brotherhood, but never-the-less it was there.
Eventually I married. I knew that my mother would be very proud to have a daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, I think she would have been the only one delighted. Maybe my former Master would be pleased too, but I am not certain of that. My instincts tell me he'd think I was failure. That I failed
him.
The Chancellor is another. No one has ever had the patience and the time to really hear me. Oh, Obi-Wan guides me, he gives me a hand, but it always seems to be that his advice fits into someone's agenda. Palpatine is the only one that's ever really
listened.
These are my family now. And though they are not perfect, they are mine.
Comments welcomed.
