I'm tired of being what everyone else has made me,” I said. "I want to be myself.”
"Don't be a child.”
I looked up, startled and angry, though of course there was nothing to see. "What?”
"You are what your creators and experiences have made you, like every other being in this universe. Accept that and be done; I'm tired of your whining.
