I can’t imagine such a man.
I can only imagine him.
Even he makes mistakes. Here he admits it.
"You were lifted out of your boyhood and put in a place where you thought you were supposed to be a man. Even I told you that you must do what a man would do. I am sorry that I betrayed you in this way.
I should never have asked you not to be a boy. It is a time of life that is as magical as a rainbow, and seems as fleeting as a soap bubble. Some of us let it go too soon, and are forever after like baby birds, fallen from their nest; unable to fly, and yet not able to return to the nest either.
Are you saying then, that I should go back home? I do not know if Mama will let me.
No. I did not mean that, though if you truly want that to happen I will make it happen! No, what I meant was not that you should return to your home, but that you should return to your joy.
