Have You ever seen Something in Your life that You wish You could UN-SEE ?There have been Two things for Me.1, I saw my Neighbours across the Road having sex, and by the time i put My binoculars down and got off the wordrobe i was disgusted ! 2. No joke.Was 15 when i peered over my Neighbours fence and saw His car exhaust pipe connected to a hose.Had to hear His Mum screaming when Police needed Her to identify His Body in " situ" in the Car.As i was the one who called the Ambulance i had to go to a coroners inquest.All because His Girlfriend left Him.He was 25.To this very Day i still can.t get it out of my Head.The worst part was when His Dad knocked on our door in tears and asked Me if i could Recall His last few Days.Even at 15 it broke My heart.Yes, 1 was a joke but No.2 still chokes Me to this Day.I saw first hand how losing a loved Family Member Devastates Loved ones.So....If You ever feel that low....Please remember...Your " escape " will leave devastation "It is only painful for those who are left behind...........
So many young men have no coping mechanism, once a relationship ends.
On Friday morning, at Ayr, I was waiting for the Wetherspoon's there to open. Then, a Chap from Belfast came and talked to me; he also waited for it to open. He said that he moved to Ayr, to live with his partner, and she ended up chucking him out. He was waiting for the 9 am coach to the ferry, and Belfast, I waited for the 1 pm one.
I also saw a domestic dispute, out in the road, one night; when living in Dun Laoghaire, during placement year (1999-2000) and ended up walking to the Garda Station to mention it.
