Sarah, my tone was too harsh. I should not have said what I said. I have tried to manage what I am for decades. The things you have suggest, of course, I have thought about them. But I cannot do something like it. It was too tempting to hear it from you. I cannot be that person. If I go after criminals and whores, where do I draw the line? Their lives might be shorter than yours. Every human life is shorter than mine. That is my family's rationale. We are superior so we take what we want. I'm not like that. I cannot ever be like that. Maybe it is better if I stay out of your way. But you treated me decently so I owe you an explanation and an apology. Thomas
