Limits of Empathy

It's no one's fault when they are involved in a brutal event. Even creating the conditions making it probable or inevitable are blameless manifestations of that person's essence.

Having accepted those necessary relations, the voyage of their destiny is also affirmed, and everything that happens to them is appropriately earned and unavoidable. Not only do they pass through all this, they must pass through it.
