One day, you'll understand all of this, even if you ultimately do not agree with it. I can't force that any faster than you can yourself. Maybe I will be here when that day comes and you can tell me about it. Maybe I won't be, and we'll be worlds apart. Who knows. But, time is too short-- life is too short --for me to want to be in fights like this with people I care about. For you, who has lost a tenth of her years already, what will you find your life to be too short for?
I'm not looking for you to forgive me; but I'll be looking for you to see there's more to life than all or nothings.
