The Ties That Bind

I've forgiven Brick a lot over the years. I have managed to overcome even the things that are unforgivable. This has sometimes lead people who know our history to presume that I am a forgiving person. I'm not.

There are ties that bind: family, history, children. When your life is interwoven with anothers, you forgive a lot. When the only thing tying you to another person is affection and a common interest, cutting loose is much easier.
