Prompt: Letters 11–16 show how relationships can be full of misunderstanding and pressure. Harpo wants love, but he also wants power. Sofia wants freedom, not control. Reflect on a time when someone’s desire for control hurt a friendship or relationship. What advice would you give to Harpo or Sofia if you could?

 Prompt Response: I had a friendship that recently ended because the person whom I thought was my friend wanted complete control over things. People think that having control over the ones that they claim that they love is protecting them when it is actually harming them. The advice I would give Harpo is to leave Sofia alone. You can't make someone love you any more by taking control over them it only drains them. I'd also say to harpo that it doesn't make him any manly or any more of a man. I'd tell Sofia to leave that man, no man should ever feel like they have the need to have full power over a female just to make themselves feel any better. 

Summary: November 11, 2025, was absent. 

Reflection: I strive to be the best that I can be everyday in any way possible, to reach my short term goals and to achieve my long term goals in the future.
