The weather was a bit dismal today but I took the time to practice with the bow we have been carrying around as excess weight. Sam fired a few shots with the air rifle too. I practiced on trees mainly to save the arrows but when it came to practicing our aim with guns we used the Rani as practice.
I've learnt how to adjust the sights correctly on most weapons now and I can get kill shots up to 50 metres or so and then intermittently after that. Unsurprisingly Sam is better than me in shots, as she has always been. She manages about 75 metres before faltering. I like to blame my glasses.
Standing on one of the roofs today though I was reminded of the day we actually met pretty much 6months ago. Are we even those people anymore? When I asked Sam she replied that 'I remember it through my eyes, so I guess so. I'm just less scared now than I used to be. I still miss people sometimes, but I'm not alone so I mostly forget'.
I suppose it is true. we're forgetting. I cannot even remember peoples faces properly now, let alone their voices. Try not to forget a while longer people. Things might yet change.
I hope you make another day
