Dear ninibee:

I will probably have a few more thoughts about what you shared tomorrow morning (in about 13 hours from now), but for now: I appreciate you answering my questions so clearly and respectfully. From what I understand, at the time (2019) you wished that you had a mother whom you liked and respected, and therefore wanting to make her proud. But because you disliked and disrespected your mother, you had no one that you wanted to please and make proud. Maybe that’s the emptiness you talked about at the time, not having anyone to live for, is how you put it, if I remember correctly.

Is that it?
