Prompt 10 - My life would be better if...
That is, perhaps, a kind of a loaded statement, as there are several things that might make my life better than what it is now or has been in the past.
Before I came to Archenland and Narnia, I would have said that freedom to choose my own destiny and be myself would make my life better -- and it has. I have Hwin, Cor (he will always be Shasta to me), and Bree. Cor and Corwin's father treats me as if I am one of his family. I have met High King Peter and his family. I have met Aslan. I have a real family, now. I am happier than I have been since my mother died. I am truly content.
Had I heard this question before I left Calormene, there would have been a long list of answers.
My life would be better if my mother was still alive, or if my father had never married, or if, or if, or if...
It's one of those things that you never seem to run out of answers for.
I choose to focus on the now, and not worry about the then.
