*If you enter the chapel today you might notice the young man seated quietly in the pews. If you take a seat next to him, he may after a few minutes, unless you are clearly lost in your own thoughts, turn to you and pose this question

[tilts his head] That's a fairly loaded question.

[a_holy_oak]

Precisely. How you react to a bad situation is your own choice--but there will always be a way over and around it; God will provide.

[x_autnihil]

Then what are your thoughts on being trapped here?

[a_holy_oak]

It also happened for a reason. My life's changed drastically, and not all for the worse.

[x_autnihil]

That's good to hear. There certainly are benefits to this place.

[a_holy_oak]

I've learned a great deal.

[x_autnihil]

Have you been here very long?

[a_holy_oak]

Nearly three years, at this point.

[x_autnihil]

Impressive. Should I offer you congratulations? You must have seen a lot of changes.

[a_holy_oak]

Within myself, for certain.

[x_autnihil]

How so?

[a_holy_oak]

Three years is enough time to change everyone, for one.

[x_autnihil]

True. I'm sorry if I asked a too-personal question.

[a_holy_oak]

No, it's fine--it's just been a lot.

[x_autnihil]

Would you leave if you were given the opportunity?

[a_holy_oak]

That would depend.
