Forest Gump said that life is like a box of chocolote.... I don't get it. Doesn't chocolate taste good all of the time? Life is not good all of the time. I suppose there are some who hate chocolate, but the general consensus is that eating chocolate is a wonderful experience. Life is wonderful too. Seriously. I am not a cynic. But I think life can be many things. Including a loving mother. And like all good mothers, life will exercise the right to use tough love. Tough love gets a bad rap, but those of us who survive always come out a little stronger. So for those of you experiencing that tough love right now and reading this blog, remember that every mother will balance that tough love with a reward...maybe chocolate.
Anyway, I mention tough love because I promised in my last blog that I will talk about the Kagome Wu. The first person from Union Academy that Nathaniel Devereaux meets is the petite and tough Kagome Wu. She is a Yarian. Her people share many similiarities with the people of earth. There are a couple of differences, one of them is an average life span of about 1,000 years. Kagome never tells her age. She just tells the twelve year old Nathaniel that she is much older than he is. Kagome is an upperclass cadet at the academy and she is also an instructor. She is tough on Nathaniel, but only because she believes in him. Through her direct tutelage, Nathaniel {Savant} becomes a top-notch cadet.
Savant is available at www.amazon.com, www.bn.com, www.blackrosewriting.com
