I didn't really care if Mr Deaths tea was cold or not. And he knew it, but, with his usual grace of self, Mr Death beared down and awaited for more to come. Mr Death was not wrong to think so.
My mood had been hollow and harsh.
I acted like I knew better than he and any one else out there, and I was not willing to be lenient whats so ever. However, Mr Death could see the holes in my strategy and the loops in my techniques. The main point missed by my tunnel vision, was the one glaring point Mr Death hadn't. The truth being, I was out of line, and I didn't even know it!
EGG.
So, Mr Death mustered enough paitence, so not to laugh at me till he's sides splits and enough compassion, so not to just take me to the rest that waits, and listened:
"Well...it was the best thing I could have done for her. IF, I hadn't helped her...she would be in the same place She haD been beforE. It wouldn't haVe hurt her toO Much I recKon mR Death."
"...really?"
"well....I've been down that road myself...stuck, in, mmmy own mind. But I got thru it. and I could be able to help...Im telling you now I can do...wonderful things for her annd the rest of them, as long as they listened to me and I can get them through this stale place...Its like they love living this way...Im gonna give them choices and options....but she neededd to wake up. Tha's why..I had too!!
My eyes had become brightened by the clarity of future ventures, movement, motion. I could feel the pitch of my voice go up...Mr Death sat with an eager posture. There was no question coming from him...I continued my case.
"Yep...and there was no real issue with shoving her around and making her listen. I had been assertive. And she needed to hear it...I'll just think about what I've done after we've finished the work we've started...Theres not much that can be said now that its happened...with all that in mind what else could there possibly be left to say about my pushing her around to get my point across...whats done is done, what I've done???..."
At that stage, spoken with a clear soft voice, Mr Death uttered two sentences that brought me crashing to the floor...defeated, detested and accountable. Leaving me to question the person I am, and the path I am becoming.
"You don't have the right to harm anybody. You do not have the right."
