If not you then who

"If not you, then who? If not now, then when?"

This is a story about a girl named Aratreyah who's boyfriend, Aidan, rapes her. After months of suffering, she sees him again. What would she do to make him suffer for what he did to her? Only she knows.

When your heart is asking you to do something but the fears inside your head are stopping you, it’s important to ask yourself “if not now, when?”…

You’re too cocky for someone who hasn’t even got their shit together. Who are you to decide who deserves or doesn’t deserve something ? Even God has the humility to let us decide for ourselves.

Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it. As it is, you are full of your grandiose selves. All such vaunting self-importance is evil. In fact, if you know the right thing to do and don’t do it, that, for you, is evil. Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin. Therefore, to one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin. Anyone who knows the right thing to do, but does not do it, is sinning. To him…

if not this, then what? if not now, then when? if not you, then who?

If not now, then when. If not me, then who.
