Indeed. And those hurtful, wrong, killing words can no more be taken back than a bullet.
I AM however fascinated by the illustration…(I am almost as much an aficionado of firearms as I am of women brandishing them)…please tell me, Esther, where did you find this artwork? It is an essentially perfect rendition of a Barrett 50 cal. BMJ, as well as a riveting image of the woman who brandishes it.
Is it your own handiwork? I do not intend to demean how profound this post is, because the truth of it goes clear to the bone (much like this post).

This post got my attention for two reasons: I love depictions of powerful, assertive women and am a long-time firearms aficionado. This is a near-perfect image of a Barrett 50cal BMG, and the picture is truly heroic.
It was only later that I realized that in this picture, she has been shot…and words, like bullets, can never be taken back.
I highly recommend Esther’s site; there is rarely a day she doesn’t post beautiful, provocative images and words.
