[hello_there]

Honor isn't a high and shiny ideal;
It's a thing of grit and blood. It's a thing you live with every moment of every day,
and sometimes you have to compromise it and sometimes it has to compromise you,
but it's not a decoration that you pull out when it's convenient.

It's not a thing you can bend to make your own wants acceptable.

"But here’s a little secret for you: no one is ever the same thing again after anything. You are never the same twice, and much of your unhappiness comes from trying to pretend that you are. Accept that you are different each day, and do so joyfully, recognizing it for the gift it is. Work within the desires and goals of the person you are currently, until you aren’t that person anymore, and everything changes once again."
