How would ye bear to draw your latest breath, Where all that's wretched paves the way for death?

Tradition is but a meteor, which, if once it falls, cannot be rekindled.

They are both dead now and I obviously can do nothing to repair or change that, and I grieve every day for those choices.

Having made that choice, I find the grief in my heart finally abating. Now I teach the need to forgive yourself and others relentlessly.
