03/26/2003 Entry: "After the Spillage"

Chaplains in the uni have spent the last few weeks telling us about their faith journeys during the Wednesday meetings.

This week, the students (and me) had their turn. I was last up, and I spilled my guts, perhaps being far more vulnerable than I normally am. I've got a bit of a hard-luck life story. A bit of tragedy, a lot of pain. I don't go into it much. I did this afternoon. Which isn't normally like me.

There was a long silence afterwards. I was all choked up, meself, but, well, there wasn't much that was said after.

D'you ever find that when you've said a lot about yourself, people get really awkward around you?
