"...I have to admit my own limitations, when it comes to empathising with
your position. I was not born or raised 'for' any reason. I didn't

'something bigger', was only ever mine to dictate. And without any sense
of...limitation, I went too far."
A slow breath.
"I think your problem is the inverse to mine. Where I felt untethered, by
expectation or even by basic ethics, you seem to feel...paralyzed, now, in
their absence."
