The Effect Words Have

The girl is very tempted to go OOC and write in first person just to get this post done and out of her head!  But she is trying to be good, so she won't.

She is amazed how words have to the power to move a person in so many different ways.  They're just a grouping of letters, just shapes - symbols to represent sounds that together represent a thing, an action, a description...

and yet they can make you cry from sadness or from joy.  They can make you recall a specific time and event.  The power they have is amazing.

It is 5:19 am and the girl has already been moved by 3 words today: "Are you ready?"

Okay, to be truethfull, 2 other words moved her first, a first and last name she saw before opening an email.  Excitment woke up her foggy head.  Then her eyes jumped to these last three words and that excitment changed from a skipped heart beat and moved south to that familiar, and somewhat painfull pull that happens right before the girl gets wet.

My wcD has summoned me.
