"I think it applies perfectly. Things have gotten out of hand in your own mind out of guilt and a few reminders here and there. You think the whole world is out to get you, so you shut everyone out, when really it's only a few stubborn nay-sayers who refuse to see the good that you've brought about. You saved Monaghan from the roughest winter it's seen in decades, and the people are grateful. The rest of Ireland has taken notice, especially your uncle and several lords who once sent men to fight against you. People are beginning to forgive you, Sarah, but the more you push away the rest of the world, the harder it's going to be to see that. You're even pushing Ian away, and he's trying to show you all the good that's come of all your work. But you won't forgive yourself. It's almost exactly like breaking that glass case, but back then, it was Stephen trying to show you that all you'd done to make up for your mistake, and you pushed him away too."
