Dear T

I'm hearing you want me to give up my power voluntarily.
I take it you know how difficult this is for me.
You are asking the impossible, so you are going to have to cut me some slack.
I am prepared to give it a go if you can first win back my trust.

You have to prove to me that you will not take my power by force.

That is my offer. Call it an ultimatum if you like. Because the other two options are:
a) You abandon this objective, or
b) I quit.

Love,
CE
