How I feel about it doesn't change that it's something I have to do.

It feels silly to admit, but it makes me a little sad to think that this would change me enough so that Firenze could tell that I was different. That he'd see me in a different way.

You've done difficult things because it's important and necessary, and you've been so very brave about it. This is a far smaller version of that. I can do this.

I do believe I will need help, though. Thank you.
