Salem Witch Trials

When I found out that I was accused of witchcraft I was so angry yet so nervous. I would never do anything like that and for someone to think that is mistaken. When I walk through town I feel embarrassed, sad, and like no one really knew me. I feel all my friends turned their backs on me. My family is sad that I have to go to trial and that I have to go through this. My kids cry every night thinking I might be hanged. My husband wants to kill whoever blamed me because he knows me better than anyone else and knows I would never practice witchcraft. I think to myself; why would these people think this of me? Do I act evil? Is this really happening? All these years that I have known these people they act like they never knew me. My mind races about all the outcomes. They could find me innocent and my life could be the same again. They could find me guilty and I could be but in jail for the rest of my life or be hanged. I learned that you can’t have enemies and that you can’t trust anyone except yourself. I learned life isn’t always perfect and little mistakes can cause you a lot of grief. I learned that you never know what’s going to happen and at anytime your life can turn towards the deep end. Also that your life is in the Lords hands and he will decide your future.
