Oh, Elle, love. We fight and die because sometimes, that's all that's left. We fight so that we can live with ourselves. Or at least that's why I fight. Why I fought. You can't know what they do to people and then just sit around and do nothing about it. It isn't even about winning and losing. It's war and eventually, everyone loses. But while you're still around, while you can still make an impact, it's your duty to do that. Not because you signed something or because you took some oath, but because in your heart, you know they're wrong and that it would be a sin to do nothing. Even if you could run, would you? Would you be able to sit down in your flat in Australia, or France, or
wherever and not think about what's happening in England?
It isn't... tangible... like it used to be, I guess. Because you are where you are and you're fighting an idea. The good you want to fight for isn't the good that used to be in power and I know that's hard. The good has to come from you. It has to be what you really believe the world should be like. And if that isn't enough, if that doesn't have enough logic in it for you, then Elle, baby, maybe you shouldn't be fighting at all. But I know that isn't you. You wouldn't still be there if it was.
I wish you could hear me. I wish I could still be there for you. I'm so sorry.
