Familiar Assistance
Today while I was in the middle of surfing the internet for jobs in another state, my therapist from New Orleans called me. I was worried that her home had been damaged and that she may not have decided to go back to the city. She said that she and her family faired out pretty well. She was contacting her clients to see if they were still interested in resuming counseling sessions. I told her that I was interested but right now I am in limbo because of my job and I am in another city/state. Because I felt like I was beginning to have a breakthrough with the counseling, I wanted to go back home for that reason. I must admit I haven't thought much about what happened in February since Hurricane Katrina shook up the gulf coast and New Orleans. As much as I want to forget about it, I know in order for me to actually heal, I have to finish counseling. Once before when I tried to call her office, the voicemail indicated that they were closed due to the storm. At that time I thought that maybe it would be a while before they are able to get back into the city and resume normal operations. Their office is located uptown, so I figured maybe it would not take as long provided their employees were able to live in their homes. Well now she is back and I can not get into the city because I have no place to live and possibly no place to work. I was happy to hear from her. With so much that has been going on, I figured she nor her co-workers may not have time to assist other people. They have to take care of themselves first right? That seems only fair. I guess I will have to wait it out and see. Someone told me to be patient and let "time" take its course. He know who he is and I guess he is right. Everytime I think I need to give up and leave the city, something happens to make me say wait and see because I just might be going back afterall. The guy I like plans to go back, the court system plans to be up and running next month, my family wants to go back, and now my counselor has called. That was good news to me.

Its great news to hear from someone you have not heard from since the storm. I was really worried about some of my friends and it was good to hear from them.
I went back and read from your February post.That is very sad. That is a crime sex crimes that is just the worst. As a guy there is no way I can understand but they make me sick at my stomach. I would have to think they rob you of your very being. I would also not blame you for wanting to kill. As a person in your position with time I would think that would be the extra punch I needed in the morning to get up go to work and just kick ass I mean go all out 100%.
