Jonathan, I know I'll only
manage to say this once: I'm sure you didn't mean your words
to sound the way they did on the bridge today.
Your strength
doesn't derive from making others look weaker. It's integral
to the man you are. Look in your heart, love, you'll find it
there...with your compassion, your humanity, your sense of
justice. You'll find our love as well.
I understand the
need to keep the private men who love each other somehow
apart from the starship captain and the armoury officer.
But when you lash
out at one, the other bleeds.
