How do you let go of anger? How do you release a fury you've been standing on for so long, you would stumble if it were yanked away? As Sully sat in his old room, holding the letter, he felt himself lifting off from his bitterness, the way one lifts off in a dream. Elliot Gray, an enemy for so long, was now seen differently, a man forgivable for his mistake.

Sully reflects on the challenging process of letting go of long-held anger, pondering how to release feelings of fury that have become a part of him. He realizes that releasing this anger feels like an unfamiliar experience, similar to the sensation of floating away in a dream. His emotions are tied to his history of resentment, making the thought of moving on daunting.

However, as he reads a letter in his childhood room, Sully starts to perceive Elliot Gray, someone he considered an enemy, in a new light. Instead of seeing Elliot solely through the lens of past grievances, he begins to understand that forgiveness is possible. This shift in perspective allows Sully to contemplate the idea of freeing himself from bitterness, signaling a significant emotional transformation in his journey.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.
