Will it ever stop?

So this afternoon I was lying in bed reading a book thinking about the nature of fasting when I heard some noise in my kitchen. Yes I was wondering what it could be so I walked out of the bedroom and started down the hall when I saw a young, early 20’s, black man walking in my apartment. Befuddled I yelled what are you doing here get out!! At which point he called me a very unflattering name and walked out my front door. Yep that is right I have now had my apartment broken into not once but twice! What next?

The big issue here is that I now find myself looking very suspiciously at black men. So is this a product of society or a product of their bad decisions? Not all black men are bad, I know this, but how am I to reconcile my emotions and thoughts on this one. He looked at me and I will admit to being afraid. I truly feared; if he had had a weapon I have no doubt that he would have used it. Will he come back? I don’t know; I will no longer sleep in my apartment though. I do not feel safe in the middle of the day, I look over my shoulder, and I am not sure how I will sleep again.

What is this world coming to? Is it humanity as a whole that has become corrupt and disgusting or is it just individual people?

For those of you wondering, the cats are fine they are staying at my dad’s house for a while…. hope they like camp!
