“My thoughts and ideas were grandiose. I felt I had a special gift to save the world and to somehow counsel abused children… As these thoughts were going through my head, random songs were also being played… I recall feeling a sense of paranoia as well, like people were staring at me as they walked by. It was as if they were accusing me of committing a crime. I was running on empty, but I could not sit down long enough to enjoy the buffet… There was another major problem. Grace had become my enemy. I hated her more and more with each breath I took in. I hated her with every fiber in my body. I was deceived and a fool for thinking she was my best friend. She had turned on me… When the weekend had ended, there was a nasty storm brewing within me. There was no telling what my future would hold when I returned home. Perhaps that was for the best.”
