Strangers Candy Cane

Do you remember when your parents always told you never to take candy from strangers? I as a kid never saw the problem in that. Everybody always said that they would take me and I always wondered if they would take to the park or something cool like that. They never told me what they did so I was always kind of curious. Of course as I grew older I realized what they would do to me. I always took candy from strangers. Their was a janitor that always gave me candy at school. One time he even told me to come inside the janitor closet to get it with him. I wonder if he was a pedophile? I don't remember being touched. One time I was walking down the street and this guy in this car offered me some candy. Knowing how I love candy, I went to the car and got the candy. It never dawned on me on why they were giving just this random kid some candy. I always wonder if something happened and I just suppressed it all to the back of the mind to forget about it. If so, it's working. Wouldn't want to remember that. I suppressed a lot of things but something like that I would never forget no matter how hard I tried.

My mom called me and told me how I never was afraid of strangers which started this whole memory thing. Then I told her these two things that I remembered and she was a bit shocked. I assured her that I don't remember anything bad happening to me. But the memories are starting to come back so I'll have to get back to her on that. If something did happened that might explain my "I don't have a problem with drinking!!!!" behavior.

I really don't want to think about it now. But I can't. I've been thinking about ever since she called me but I'm 100% sure nothing happened to me. Kids take candy from strangers all the time.

I'm going to go ahead and write another post now to cheer up the blog a bit.

Crazy! I don't think anything happened to you, because I am sure you wouldn't be able to supress something like that.
