Summary: She is strong enough to stand by her decisions - but not strong enough to apologise for them.
She did what was right for the world, for the future - and she stands by that decision. Take her back in time and she will do the same thing and make the same choices. Again. Again.
And again - again - her heart will ache because of it.
Again - again - she will long for the strength and humility to hold her sons tightly to her chest and whisper I'm sorry in their ears. She will long for their forgiveness to drop like a blanket on her wearied shoulders.
And again - again, again, again - she will find herself too weak to do so.
