I've seen a lot in my life. I'm not complainin', mind, but I've seen a lot. When I was at the plantation I saw enough bad things happen that I pretty much made up my mind that life wasn't good to us slaves. And then, on the battle field, watching men on both sides fighting and killing each other? I decided that maybe life wasn't good for anyone, no matter where they came from and that it couldn't possibly get any worse.

But listening to my father, standing up at his trial, confessing to the whole world what he did, I realised that it could get worse.

I could lose the rest of my family too. Strange, ain't it, how something like that damn murder trial could make me actually feel good about what I've got.

Josiah would call it fate or something. I call it family.

Never easy, dis t'ing called life. But we get t'rough it, and learn from it.

Recognizin' family de most important part sometimes.
