Diary entry for March 18th, 2009

March 18th, 2009

Yesterday evening I went back to the rehab house for a couple of hours, just to chat to the people there. Talked to Jeffrey, Sara, Rosalyn & her brother ( I keep forgetting that guys name. Its something like “Andrew” :D ).

While I was talking to Sara I noticed she changed a lot since the last time I saw her,  she thought about what I said and probably came to the conclusion that I was right. She was very optimistic, knowing that the situation she’s in now isn’t the best place to be but its necessairy to get out of the life she’s living. She was also thinking about going back to school or try homeschooling, another thing I tried to convince her of last time. There was no more black make-up and she didn’t try to hide herself from everything and everyone, so I’m pretty sure I got through to her. I even get hugs :)

I suppose she’s listening to me because I seem to be the only one who is talking to her without mentioning God every few sentences, and I try to listen to her problems and needs without talking about mine. Anyway, I’m glad I got through to her and maybe changed her life for the better.

Jeffrey seemed to be in a better mood to, he told me about the part of his life when he started believing in God and how he tried to commit suicide. Although I still don’t believe the way they do, I’m glad to hear their stories. I believe that in the end - no matter what we believe in -  we’re trying to get to that same situation in life, a better life for us and for the people standing next to us.

Talked to Rosalyn too, she was having mood swings and was trying to learn Dutch from me. Its strange to see how she was very enthousiastic sometimes, and the next moment everything bores her and she just walks around the house. I believe that she can be a wonderfull woman, a strong personality and that she’s capable of leading the group when she passed this stage in her life. I hope she’ll think about an abortion, although I know how hard it is for a woman to make that decision, even if she knows that its for the best. Maybe I’ll talk to her about it next time - don’t know.

Well, I better get to work now. bye ;-)
