02/04/1998 ENTRY 39: 2/06/2014 Abigail opened our session with, 'I've been thinking about what you said about counselling.' 'What have you been thinking?' I asked. 'It's funny that when you talk something over with a friend, something important, it seems easier to understand,' she said. 'And sometimes your friend just needs to hear their thoughts out loud to get them into some sort of order,' I added. 'Listening is an empowering gift, Abigail.' 'What I have been thinking about is that while I have listened to my friends, I have never shared my secret,' she said in a small voice. 'Have you never told anybody?' I asked. 'Hell no! They'd think I'm a slut!' came her angry reply. 'They wouldn't let me near them if they knew what I did!' 'You have guarded your secret so well and for so long, Abigail,' I responded. 'That must have been so very hard.' 'I suppose. But it's not like I had a choice!' she said angrily.
