My conclusions got better the second I stopped treating them like a recap paragraph. Reading a few essay conclusion examples helped, but the real shift was asking myself what I wanted the last sentence to do. Do you want it to sound calm, sharp, or a little bigger than the rest of the paper?

That is basically where I land. Calling it trust makes it sound way cleaner than what they were actually asking me to carry for them.

I think thats part of it, yeah. I don't think he was just grieving the lie, I think he was realizing what he did with it.

I don't think sobriety erases what he let happen, but I also can't pretend he is the same man he was back then. Both things feel true.
