Dear u/PrideTwo
As I faced the mirror today, a weight hung heavy in the air. The seventeenth day of this #WAR brought a somber realization - two of my fellow soldiers, u/Zimora, and u/J33pGuy13 have fallen victim to its challenges. The battlefield feels emptier now, the camaraderie we once shared replaced by a sense of solitude. I stand on the front lines alone, determined to continue the fight, to honor their memory by persevering.
With the razor in hand, I embarked on another day of battle. The lessons of yesterday held true, morning shaves proving to be smoother than those in the mid-afternoon. The scent of the soap, that constant reminder of #WAR, seems to echo the sentiment of this battle - unyielding, relentless, yet somehow evolving.
The lather formed easily, a testament to the bond I've formed with the tools I wield. Each stroke of the razor, each pass across my skin, carries with it a sense of purpose, a reminder of the fallen comrades and the battles we've faced together.
As the eighteenth day draws to a close, I carry their memory with me. I fight on, not just for myself, but for those who can no longer stand beside me. This #WAR may be unforgiving, but I refuse to be broken by its challenges. Tomorrow, I'll rise again, armed with the knowledge that morning shaves offer a smoother path, and that even in solitude, I am not alone. Until then, my journal, I'll continue to navigate this battlefield with unwavering determination. Onward, through the complexities of this journey, carrying the legacy of those who fought by my side.
I'll miss you u/Zimora and u/J33pGuy13/
Sincerely,
u/Absenth
P.S. I have heard that u/J33pGuy13 is carrying on the battle in a form of Guerilla Warfare against our common enemy but is no longer part of the battlefield.
