Taurus
Within Easy Company they had made the best friends they had ever had, or would ever have. They were prepared to die for each other; more important, they were prepared to kill for each other.
Stephen E. Ambrose
Sometimes you know what you need to do long before you know why you need to do it. The certainty sits in your body like a weight you have grown used to carrying, solid and unmistakable, while your mind scrambles to catch up with reasons and justifications. You have been living with this knowing for weeks now, maybe longer, arranging your days around it without naming it. The gap between what you already understand and what you can explain to yourself is closing, but slowly, at the speed that lets you keep everything else in place while the knowing does its work.
