RE: A Great Battle

When power decides who wins, right and wrong are no longer just ideas. They become something you have to live with. Winning does not clean your conscience, and losing does not make your reason for fighting disappear. What is left is that quiet moment after, when you have to live with what you believed and what it cost you.

I think that is where real strength shows. Not in winning the kingdom, but in still being able to ask that question. To keep asking even when it feels like fate has already decided is a kind of dignity. History may be written by the powerful, but meaning is written by those who keep searching for what was fair.

I like how you phrased that!

I guess that, the moments of reflection that happens after a life chapter, a difficult chapter of life or, just in an ordinary day are needed. But, I guess not everyone would reflect on things that has been done before.
