Early this week I talked to a girl I know. Were sort of friends. Its more of we know of each other and are friendly sort of think. While I was talking to her I could tell that something was wrong. After I got off the phone with her I called a friend and asked them to go see her because something didnt seem right.

I spent most of the week feeling miserable, so I just kind of forgot about it.

Well I found out what was wrong. Some guy broke into her place and tried to rape her.

She fought him off, I thing she stabbed him. All I know is that when the cops got there she was covered in blood and it wasnt hers. The guy got away for a few days but the cops finally got him. He of course is claming that she invited him in her apartment and is just crying rape, he didnt do anything. The police arent buying it, thank God.

Ive known several women who have been raped; Ive seen what it does to them. I have such hate in me when it comes to men who abuse women. Ive talked about it here in my journal before. It comes from my father abusing my mom. I cant just turn a blind eye. If I see someone who I think needs help, I have to do anything I came to help.

In this case though, Im not supposed to know what happened. The friend I sent over to check on her told me about it. She doesnt want anyone to know, shes feeling ashamed. We arent close enough for her to feel comfortable to talk to me about. I know she has friends and family who are supporting her. I just want to go see her, give her a hug and tell her that if she wants me to, Ill go tare this guys dick off and shove it up his ass with a baseball bat.

I dont get how someone can get so fucked up that they think rape is ok. Rape isnt sex, rape is violence and domination. Anyone who has to rape someone so they feel like the big man is nothing more than a tiny piece of insignificant shit. I hope this guy is getting rapped right now in his cell.

We have to do better my friends. We need to take care of each other. If someone needs a ride and you can help, do it. If someone is hungry and you have a few extra dollars to help them out, do it. Sometimes the best thing we can do for each other is to just be there. Hold someones hand; ask them how their day was. There are a million different ways we can help each other if we just take a little time.

Be kind to one another. If you need help, ask. Its ok; we all need help from time to time. Theres no shame in asking for help.

I like this song,

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
