“How can you be so nonchalant towards your torturer?”
“Because I never let him take charge of my psyche. He’s the dirty outsider I leave behind before entering myself.”
“So, forgiveness is your panacea for sorrow?”
“No. I don’t let the unwanted come in.”

Something like that needs amazing mental fortitude 😄 Interesting one ma’am!
