WHAT DOES "REHABILITATED" MEAN?
Looking back at much of the things that have been posted on this website over the last two years, dating back to the time period when a long term relationship began falling apart. There has certainly been a lot of anger.
I see the words of a man who was in an incredible amount of pain. A man who was looking for a target to blame for that pain.
And all I can think of is the scene near the end of The Shawshank Redemption when Red is finally released from prison:
"Rehabilitated?..
I don't have any idea what that means...
I know what you think it means...
To me it's just a made up word...
There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here or because you think I should.
I look back on the way I was then. A young stupid kid... I wanna talk to him. I wanna try to talk some sense into him. Tell him the way things are. But I can't... I gotta live with that.
Rehabilitated? It's just a bullshit word."
