....The world isn't a nice place, Fen. You of all people know this, I'm sure.
People lie to each other, they betray their trust, they'll even kill who they once called friend over the simplest things.
Death and deceit are everywhere. It's a simple fact. Nearly impossible to trust anyone, really.

Now that was your own fault.
There was a wall behind the thing, and you punched it.
And don't say- "Oh it was not my fault, I thought I'd hit it"
Well- apparently the press say that people can move out the way of a punch?
Not sure if you've heard of it.

Do I call you Sir?
Your excellency?
Still- can't be that much different. Just a profession, right?
Like if I just said I'm Mister Edward Hyde, I'm Unemployed and living off benefits from an Old Doctor.
1.5 imperial gallons of tea were consumed during the writing of this postWell, that's the thing. There's so much evil in the world, it makes it so easy to forget about all the good in it, too...
Sometimes, we need a reminder of our capacity for kindness, for empathy, for charity. We need something to help us remember why something like friendship, or love, exists in the first place.
That's what this time of year is for, above everything else. A reminder that no matter how bad we may get, we're still just as capable of doing good, of loving one-another.
