Sometimes you have to let be

My husband shared with me a nightmare he had last night.

His nightmare was that he escaped an evil house, but left a man to die inside the house.

I told him that if that was real life, please don't try to save someone else at the expense of your life. Because I need you.

But deep down I know that he will anyway. Because he will never leave a man behind, even if it means that he dies trying.

And if I made him promise, he would keep his promise to me but never be able to live with himself.

So I think if *touch wood* that ever happens, and he does what he thinks is right, I think I would understand.

But it doesn't make it easier.
