Perhaps what I say is selfish, but why is it that ultimate sacrifice winds up being the only route to success? Is that what it means to live--that you must give sacrifice in order to obtain true happiness? Why must good people be forced to live their lives in eternal suffering so that others can be free?
But of course we have no other option but to be used by those who help facilitate this game in the first place. And when we now know we can't truly fight against the course they had predetermined for us.
In the end, you are my friend, and it pains me that you will suffer so--and the fact you do not wish to do this yourself only makes me wish even more that it wasn't required of anyone in the first place. Useless sentiments now, I suppose, but it is what it is.
