At an early age, my sister and I were sent away to boarding school. We hated it. It was soulless and cruel. While there I would sleep in the bunk bed above my sister’s, and hearing her sobbing at night was too much; so I would crawl into her bed and put my arms around her, to comfort her. I should warn you that reliving that experience in this week’s episode brought me to tears yet again. But although I didn’t know it at the time, I was beginning to learn about responsibility, and how you can never shirk it, unless you want to spend your life being unhappy. Learn how I accepted my own sense of responsibility and how you can too.
