Dear Diary.

If I had succumbed to those bad thoughts all those years ago and acted on it, I would have taken away father’s chance to change, grow and make amends for his past mistakes.

I would have taken away his right to live a long and healthy life and have peace.

I would have never done that. But I’m making you understand the consequences.

Every life in this world is precious and valuable and we have no right to take someone’s life. It is not our place to do it.

Don’t take your own life as well because the storm is strong. It will definitely pass.

That’s the thing about storms, it always passes and there is a clear sky again.
