When someone is done wrong, they can have some sorta justice with it, take it to court, make the person pay for what they have done. We expect to have equal justice so we can feel like the world looks at them just as low as how they looked at us.
We are still being labeled as drug adicts. People have a hard time really believing something so strange would happen in America. The story on how Straight inc. did things, takes to long, nobody wants to spend hours listening to things that sound imposible. Us victims have our own ways to get our own justice, some of us go and try to get the story out, and make Sembler a bad name, others go through trash and steal penis pumps to place on Ebay.
What makes it hard for me to carry on with my life is to know that people like Mr. Sembler is living a life full of riches. He has plenty of money to buy nice comfortable chairs and if for some reason it is not up to his standards he can snap his fingers and have it replaced.
I have no idea how to move past these thoughts in my head. I see things that remind me of Straight everyday. Here is a few things that remind me of Straight:
dixie cups
water fountains
a door missing in a bathroom stall
AA
the twelve steps
blue chairs
any chair that hooks onto another chair
twin beds with no frames
I could go on and on with the list. You know when we were kids, and we would complain, we would hear the story about our parents had to walk up hill in the snow? Well, we have the story of Straight. When my kids complain, My brain goes directly to: They dunno how bad it can get. Whats a bad hair day? How about not being able to do your hair at all? Kid comes in saying they have nothing nice to wear? How about I decide what they will wear? They complain about food. I think, what if you had no food. I dont say and do these things but I think them all the time. They stick into my head, I guess because we had it so much worse than they can ever emagine. I was that child that wasnt allowed to: pick my clothes out, do my hair, take long hot showers, eat 3 times a day, get my beauty sleep, have friends, have holidays and birthdays, and poop by myself.
How do you guys just stop thinking these things?
