I'm not saying you did the wrong thing. I'm not even saying it wasn't something I'd thought of doing, myself. But even if it was the just thing to do, or the fitting thing, it still wasn't the right thing.
The narrator reflects on a moral dilemma surrounding actions taken in a challenging situation. They express understanding of the motivations behind the actions and acknowledge that they, too, have considered similar choices. However, they emphasize that even if the decision appeared justified or appropriate, it ultimately lacks the designation of being the "right" act.
This nuanced perspective highlights the complexity of human decisions, particularly when emotions run high and circumstances are pressing. The tension between what feels justified and what is morally right is a central theme, prompting readers to consider the broader implications of their choices beyond immediate satisfaction or justice.
