And then, because I was interested, my mother and I read books about them, too. And I read "Mary Queen of Scots" about the same time...
It's funny, in a sick sort of a way. I taught myself to write with both hands because of those topics, too. Somewhere along the way, someone told me about that punishment for theives...
I used to ask my mother about it, but she wasn't helpful. I'm sure if I had been able to convey to her what was really going on inside me when I asked, she would have tried harder, but her only answer was "life was harder then, people didn't expect to live." Not true.
I hope I have the courage to bring it up with my T when I see her next. This is the sort of thing I have the most trouble discussing, because I don't want to hear that I just have to work harder to block it from my mind. Doesn't seem to matter if I'm conscious of it or not, it seems to be there, too...
I'm sorry you understand it so well...
