An instrument of death, a symbol of
life
An instrument of weakness, a symbol of strength
An instrument of pain, a symbol of healing
An instrument of finality, a symbol of new life
An instrument of fear, a symbol of courage
An instrument of shame, a symbol of pride
An instrument of punishment, a symbol of example
An instrument of condemnation, a symbol of forgivness
An instrument of rejection, a symbol of acceptance
An instrument of arrogance, a symbol of humility
An instrument of hate, a symbol of love
An instrument of murder, a symbol of sacrifice
An instrument of despair, a symbol of hope
An instrument of failure, a symbol of accomplishment.
An instrument of isolation, a symbol of community.
An instrument forced upon shoulders, a symbol lovingly embraced.
One man's decision, another Man's destiny
