It’s taken almost an entire lifetime too shake off even just a portion of the dogmatic training I was subjected to as a child. If I make it two more weeks it will be 70 years, and for most of those years I have been fighting in a push and tug battle over my beliefs versus the beliefs of others which was thrust upon me unwittingly and unwillingly as a child, and to which I have also subjected others who I love.
It will be a battle that I will never win, and perhaps that is my fate…and my punishment?
