rdrbn:

I want you to understand something - I know what they made you do. I know how much it’s hurt you, I know how much it still hurts you, but you are not what they made you. You are something more. You are what you choose to be … You aren’t a monster; that’s what they tried to make you, but it didn’t work. You are a hero because that’s the path you took yourself.
