few days ago i wrote this:
i went to school with my left pocket empty. it's where i put my phone which i gave away.
i'm wondering what kind of sense of accomplishment he had. was he proud? did he feel any remorse when he saw how pathetic my face looked when he walked away with my phone knowing he outfoxed me? was he nervous and scared? i'm sure he didn't feel guilty because he doesn't know me and so he didn't have to spend time thinking about how i felt.
i intensely dislike anything unfair which has no cause or meaning or reason. i didn't hate him but i hated what happened...
today, a friend recounted another holding up incident she saw this morning. by the details, i knew it was by the same crook. i was too naive to have not been furious. now i am. i made the mistake of underestimating his ruthlessness. criminals are nothing else but criminals.

Romans 7:21-25 "so i find this law at work: when i want to do good, evil is right there with me.
for in my inner being i delight in god's law; but i see another law at work in the members of my body,
waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members.
what a wretched man i am! who will rescue me from this body of death?
thanks be to god—through jesus christ our lord!"
