It is incomprehensible to me that you would engage in violence that is not necessary! It cannot be denied that Michael Pike did not deserve to be treated in this manner! You were a remarkable human being in every respect, and you possessed a soul that was so extraordinarily generous. I hope you have a restful night, my dance companion; you will be missed by a vast number of people.
When it seems so unjust to pray for the families of those who have lost a living loved one, there are times when these prayers are the most appropriate.
