you must recognize that accepting your own freedom is not a shirking of responsibility but the ultimate act of taking responsibility; that it requires strength to take ownership of everything you do and have done; that this is only possible if you also have compassion for yourself, understanding that everyone does everything for a reason; that this fact does not negate any harm caused, but coexists with the fact of that harm; that you are only truly free if you know why you make the choices you do; that your actions will still have consequences; that consequences are a neutral thing, like physics, one thing resulting from another, the potential results infinitely varied; and that you will feel the most confidence in your actions when you strive to perceive reality and your own emotions as they are and act accordingly.
