She wanted to blame him, to blame her whole rotton existence. But seeing Ethan, seeing her mother, seeing the world after the world she had known, somehow took her to the very bottom, the end of self-delusion, and the truth enveloped her like a cocoon, and all she said was I was so . And Father Time said, You were never alone.

The protagonist grapples with deep emotions, feeling the urge to place blame on others for her life’s suffering. However, as she confronts Ethan, her mother, and the changed world around her, she reaches a profound realization. This moment strips away her self-deception, forcing her to confront the stark truth of her existence. She feels the weight of her experiences and all she can express is a sense of being overwhelmed by her past.

In the midst of this turmoil, a comforting presence arises, symbolized by Father Time, who reassures her that she was never truly alone in her struggles. This insight serves to highlight the universal nature of her pain and the unseen support that has always surrounded her. The narrative emphasizes the concepts of connection and solace in the face of personal trials.

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.
