Is it truly redemption, if I am doing it because the act is something I feel guilt over? Is it redemption, if my guilt motivates me? To do the right thing, after a mistake so grave, is to try to do right because of that, because of my feelings over the matter.

It is not something that can ever be rectified. However, that does not mean I cannot do something. I've endeavored to stop such a thing from happening again. Why else would someone like me be in Meridian?
