I have this problem with generousity. I don't have a problem being generous because I like to think that we should do for others what you would like them to do for you. Unfortunately, when I am being generous, people take advantage of me. I thought I'd do something nice for someone and I ended up in a dangerous situation. I should have had my guard up. I should have expected the worst to happen. I should have known all along that I can't trust anyone. I guess there are a few people out there who are decent. The guy who helped me escape into the restaurant... I think he got hurt. He helped me and I ended up getting him into trouble.
I had been there before and I knew what happened there. I knew that nobody is solid anymore. It has been so long that so much has changed. It all changed for the worse. I used to be able to make friends easily, but it's not how it used to be. I'm not how I used to be. I changed for the better, and that place changed for the worst.... What can you expect from people who don't care about anything or anyone other than themselves and their need for drugs?
It could be worse for the person who they attack next. I didn't get hurt. The next victim could get killed for the price of a rock of cocaine. When the cops came, they didn't ask me anything about the people who did this to me. I doubt they even cared. They never believe a damn word I say. They never want to help me. How can I stop them from killing someone if the cops won't even look for them? Cops never want to do their jobs. And people who care, who are honest... What do they get? They become re-victimized when the cops don't believe them, when the cops make it out to be their fault. When they show lack of interest and tell you there is nothing you can do. One day that is all going to change. I won't have to suppress this anger anymore. It's all about believing in the unbelievable. Things change. It takes time. It takes people who want to help. It takes effort and commitment. Things do get better. One day they will and all of this will just be one of those bad experiences that will teach me a lesson.
