She deserves to be recognized and admired not for her inconceivable ordeal and the horrid details of her story but for the incredible strength she clearly had and has in showing the world what SELFLESS love really means in the way she cared and nurtured her children in such grotesque conditions. This women is an inspiration both as a mother and as a women. She also probably clung to hope for the children taken away from her to be raised by her father upstairs not knowing at all if he was raping them too. Having children by her father while WRONG in every sense of the word is probably what kept her going all of these years. Her life was unfortunate perhaps right from the beginning but she had family,friends,siblings and a mom she would have naturally loved and had that was all ripped away from her along with the hopes and dreams of falling in love, getting married and having children with the man you love not your father. Life may have not have been normal for this young women right from the start, but she certainly had a life, hopes and dreams OUTSIDE of a basement before her captivity at 18 years of age. This version of a unique life experience makes me feel bereft. I believe everyone has a right to privacy, as a precondition for dignity even. It must be my Scorpio MC but that sounds like hell to me.Īnd on another tangent entirely, I am not someone who looks at famous people ruing their lack of privacy and say “what do they expect!” Not by any stretch. an artist or musician or politician for example) and these two women had no choice but to be thrust into it. The other thing your post makes me think of is how some people sign up for a life that involves being in the public eye (ie. And there are only so many cards and flowers a person can receive in this life. Not because I want to close my eyes to their pain, but because I feel like they have been intruded upon enough, and what would my curiosity do for them? Chances are it wouldn’t feed them. When I think about either of these two women I am reluctant to hear more. To live vicariously through someone else, or to learn something from someone else’s experience (about yourself? about life?) Sort of off topic, but this makes me think of the reasons why people are interested in others’ more extreme life experience. In the other case, the you’re talking about something that is systemic and this stuff not very well understood at all. In one case you’re looking at a situation where a person is changed after a divorce or some other life event. These would be wildly different experiences and to apply astrology, it is the difference between something shown in the natal chart (hard-wired) as opposed to a transit to the natal which may mark you but in a very different way. It’s the difference between being taken to a concentration camp when you are 20 as opposed to being born in one. We are just in position to judge them and in fact would be very challenged to even understand them if we were fortunate enough she sit down with us and relate her experience. She would have had come up with ways to cope and we have no idea what they are. Elizabeth Smart was on track, taken off track for unusual extreme experience and then goes back on track, albeit changed.Įlizabeth Fritzl on the other hand has never been on a normal track so she is never, ever going think of things the way the average person does however I don’t think this should be a stigma. I am just saying my situation is akin to Elisabeth Fritzl’s rather than Elizabeth Smart’s. I am not comparing one situation as worse or better than the other because I could readily argue either side. She was born to this situation and that is very different than being kidnapped at 10 or at 25 (ala Elizabeth Smart) after some foundation of normalcy has been laid. The fact is all we can do is speculate what she thinks and how she feels and the chance we would be correct in our assumptions or with our blind guesses is just about 0%. She’s the gal who was held captive by her father, kept in a windowless basement for 24 years. After posting the blog about unusual experience, Elisabeth Fritzl came to mind.
