FROSTY

cont'd from week 36 ...
It's hard to believe that I have been in cryo for 100 years. I made the repairs I could to my ship but unsure if I have enough fuel to reach the Sophia outpost in the Orion system. I have been replaying the last set of video I have of my family that was left behind for weeks on end. It is hard to think about the choices we have all made. I lost my faith in the promise of a New World on Earth as it always seemed to be a hypnotic trance of the masses. A fine balance of both carrot and stick where only the select few from the right bloodlines, or those with the willingness to cater to the more darker delights of those in power, somehow rise to the top of the dung heap. I play these videos over and over again as if I enjoy the torture of the past, or is it more a reminder of the joys once had that gives me hope to find joy once again. Everyone was given the same choice, get in line or take a ship. The hardest choice was to take the ship, not really being an adventurer, stepping into the unknown does not really bring comfort. I only hope that I can reach Sophia in time and that those left behind find a way to make it there some day. In this empty space I swear I can hear the songs of the Siren, a lullaby of both wanting and hope. A sense of hope and foreboding fills the air as I engage what is left of my fuel to continue on the only path left, forward.
