Short Story by Else Cederborg: "Fate In The Workings"

 

- How ugly she is, Lynne thought, when Rosie came to see her after class. Is that grey stuff on her cheeks dirt or old make-up? And why doesn't she smile, usually they do when they ask favors ....

Rosie stood still, all quiet, didn't move, until she was sure she had caught Lynne's eye and that she didn't disrupt her work with the essays from the students. Her essay wasn't in the pile, she knew that full well, but what could she do, after all it's impossible to be in two different places at the same time.

"All right, Rosie,"Lynne said with assumed friendliness, "You wished to talk to me so how may I help you?"

Rosie stood staring at her shoes as if they were very interesting objects and she didn't have ears to hear what Lynne said. Lynne browsed one more essay and after a while she heard Rosie say: "I'm sorry I didn't have time for the essay, but ...."

"All right," Lynne said, eager to get it over with, "you know you have to prove your writing and spelling skills. Otherwise I can't let you pass. After all, people must know that you can what you're supposed to be able to do as a naturalized citizen."

"Yes, I'm very sorry," Rosie said, "but this week was impossible and then I thought that I might give you something else I wrote some time ago. It's not an essay and nobody has seen it before, but I wrote it when we read those nice English poets in class."

"Shelley, Byron and Sylvia Plath?"

"Yes, those are the ones ...."

"What do you mean that you wrote them when we read them? Did you write down what they wrote or what do you mean?"

Rosie looked at her in disgust. "No, certainly not, but I had never read English poets before and they inspired me."

Lynne looked askance at her middle-aged student, at her derelict clothes, her brownish (dirty?) hands and face. She even took in an unmistakable odor of dirty, used clothes and a not too clean human being. By doing so she felt very brave and compassionate, a real humanitarian "social worker". 

"Well, woun't you sit down, Rosie and let me finish these essays. Then we can talk about it ...." 

Rosie sat down at once which convinced Lynne about her being as tired as she looked. Again she looked down at her downtrodden, derelict shoes. 

- Too much, she thought, to be like that, a bum no less. 

Soon after having sat down Rosie's eyes closed and it was obvious that she was about to fall asleep. Lynne shrugged at her small, thin frame which made her look older than she most likely was.

After having finished reading the essays, commenting and marking them, Lynne turned to Rosie. She found her awake, but with a facial expression of utter exhaustion. When Lynne spoke to her she smiled one of those rare smiles which Lynne hadn't seen very often. To her horror she saw that she didn't have any front teeth and always being such a coward in dental matters she suddenly understood something: This woman, a refuge from a foreign country, lived a kind of life she herself wouldn't have been able to endure. All right, she was dirty and unkempt, but also she attended a night school to better her situation. Actually, she was more of a heroine than her own soldier mother, a decorated major, no less.

"Rosie," she said, "how do you get food for yourself and your family? Do you have a job?"

"No, not really, but I know some shop keepers who let me have some groceries from the day before if I help them clean the place or fetch something for them. Then they may also pay me - that is if they don't forget."

"Tough," Lynne said and this time her statement was with conviction and even regret. She suddenly felt genuine compassion and something bordering on admiration for this woman and wished she could help her. That made her think of the papers she had wanted to show her.

"All right, Rosie, what was it you wanted me to see?"

Rosie held out some papers while at the same time shyly averting her eyes. Lynne took the papers from her hand and started to read these English-inspired poems. The wording wasn't too good, but the poems themselves couldn't be shrugged off: They were good, maybe even worthy of publication. 

"Very good, Rosie," Lynne said, really impressed. "Those English poets certainly were of use for you if they inspired you."

"They did - and Pablo Neruda."

"Oh, you know Pablo Neruda? What have you read by him?"

"Everything, he was a friend of my uncle ...."

Lynne stared at her student as if she had never seen her before. "Your uncle?" she stuttered, but how?"

"I'm a fugitive, remember, and my uncle was a well known politician. Besides, I too had a life, just like yours." 

All of a sudden this derelict creature sounded exceedingly proud as if she wanted to compete with her affluent and smart looking teacher. Lynne was stunned. Were there any similarities between them so that she connected with this woman in more than an ordinary teacher-pupil relationship? That couldn't be!

"Yes, I was a teacher like you, and I wrote poetry and plays before I came here."

This statement of a lost identity went into the heart of Lynne like a fire from the angel's Sword of Flames.

 - That can't be, she told herself. From something like my family position to living on nothing in a foreign country?!! That couldn't happen to anybody. As this thought went through her bewildered mind Rosie produced a small set of photos from her handbag and put them in front of Lynne.

In these photos she saw a happy family, seemingly orbiting around an exceedingly beautiful, young woman who bore a faint resemblance to the derelict figure by her side. 

"Yes, that's me," Rosie said as her forefinger found this beautiful woman, "I'm 21-23 here and it was just before we left."

Lynne looked from her pupil to the photo and back again and she felt like weeping, however more over Fate itself than over the individual fate of this one woman. 

"All right," she said, "let me think about the poems and then maybe I can use them for an individual essay, i.e. an essay on a free subject."

Rosies face split open into rare, beautiful smile. Her eyes twinkled and the sudden beauty of her face was just a setting for what lit it up: Her very soul.

Lynne whipped out her handkerchief and concealed her tears by pretending to wiper her nose. 

"Rosie," she said, "let me have the poems for some days and then I shall talk to you again. If possible they may go as a free essay, but you may have to submit something more later on."

"OK," Rosie said, looking very relieved, "I hope you shall like them."

Lynne didn't make a reply, but when Rosie rose to her feet and left right away she knew that what she felt for this student - all the mixed feelings - might disrupt her judgement as a teacher. 

- I don't care, she thought, no, not in the least, am I corrupted then I'm also challenged by meeting Fate in the workings.

Forty Year Old Mystery Solved, And Then Not ....

  


Dean, Tina and baby Holly Marie Clouse 
 
A very young couple, the loving parents of a toddler daughter, but also the murder victims in an unsolved 1981-mystery that's intriguing, even 40 years after their death. Tina was 15 when she met Dean, who was 19 at that time, and they married shortly after. When their daughter, Holly Marie, was born, everything looked good for the young family who had moved from Florida to Texas where they intended to start an enterprise in cabinet making, which was Dean's specialty. However, their families got worried about them as they suddenly stopped communicating with them. 
 
 
Dean Clouse's mother did her best to find the family, but in vain. The police didn't do much about the mystery, which was seen as a voluntary disappearance of a young couple who wanted to start all over in Texas. Not even when a dog in Houston brought the decomposed arm of a human home to his/her family did anyone think of Tina and Dean as murder victims because that happened 250 miles from their new address. The decomposed bodies of a young, murdered couple that were found after the dog brought back the arm of one of them were buried with the romantic name of “The Harris County Does”, and nobody knew that a young child was missing. That is, not until 2022, when DNA from Dean revealed a biological link to a relative in Kentucky. The family told the police about baby Holly Marie who was still missing, as she had not been found with her dead parents. 
 
When Tina and Dean were identified, the investigation led to the discovery of what happened to their daughter. She herself didn't remember anything, but it appears that at the time of the murder she had been brought to a church in Arizona by two barefoot women, who also had her birth certificate. The pastor, Philip McGoldrick, at that church took her in and adopted her. Forty years later, when she was 42 years old, she had become the mother of five children. When describing the two women, Philip McGoldrick, called them "Jesus freaks", and he said that they presumably lived in the desert in some kind of Christian community. 
 
 
The grown Holly Marie meeting some of her relatives for the first time in 40 years
 
The murderer of Dean and Tina has not been found, but there is an ongoing investigation, so who knows, it may not be too late to bring him/her to trial. Over time, stranger things have happened than that. I, for one, suspect that Holly Marie's parents were murdered because someone wanted to kidnap her and raise her as her own daughter. Otherwise there is no reason also to steal her birth certificate ....

Thoughts About "Toxic Friendships"

I've often thought about the institutions of what one might call "an ordinary friendship", and I don't quite agree with the one who wrote the above list because I think it's much more intricate than it's made out to be. For instance, I find the "clouded friendship" to be almost lethal to the very idea of friendship, but it's not on the list. Most of these listed negative characteristics would turn me off way before seeing such a relationship as a (potential) friendship. 

If you're drowning, symbolically as well as or in the real world, then a helping hand may be what you need, but it's not very friendly to remind you eternally about that kind of help: "Look what I did for you September 3, 1965, at 11.07", may be the right pinpointing of the time, but it's turning the help into something else than what it should be to qualify as a friendly help. Help should be of a nature to be remembered by the one who received it as something non-biased or "fake". The fake helper might blow the trumpets or beat the drums of his/her "help", hoping that it will gain him/her the reputation of also being a good and rightful person in other contexts. Something that may not be the case as the one who helps the son or daughter of a powerful boss, may at the same time be the one who kicks his subordinates.
 


It may be fun for the one swinging the club and the dentist or doctor of the one on the lawn, but it's not friendly or even something to laugh at. To put somebody in dangerous situations for "the fun of it" is a warning: This individual is not a friend, and not even a good playmate. 

Well, that pinpoints one aspect of friendship: One sees somebody as a true friend, although other people don't even recognize this individual as part of one's realities. Both Timmy and his mother feel assured that the one they talk to is real and a friend whom they may trust with their secrets, hopes and whatever they are thinking of. If the invisible friend doesn't deliver what they ask him for, they are prone to find excuses as they may blame someone else for his shortcomings:

As to what I call "the clouded friendship" then it's worse than "fake", it's something that is assailed by the friend's many own masses of (mostly unfulfilled) wishes, wants and claims upon fate. I suppose the main core of it is envy, but there is an aspect that resemble the "hunger of leeches": The so-called "friend" doesn't even allow one the happiness of some kind of everyday fulfillment. For instance, you may have made a pretty dress, and you feel proud of it. That's why you expect the true friend of praising your new outfit, but instead of doing that he/she says something like "the blue one from Walmart was much more becoming". A comment like that assails both one's feeling successful as a dressmaker as well as feeling pretty. The true friend wouldn't say something like that which serves him/her as a way to stab his/her friend in the back in a manner that's set out to be "a piece of good advice for your own sake".  
 


That's what should be remembered, but which is very often forgotten ....

The Canadian "Epstein"

 

While being shocked by what the Epstein-files have revealed about the depravity and extreme misogyny of the many rich and famous men visiting the former American financier, child sex offender, rapist and trafficker we shouldn't forget Peter J. Nygard (born 1941). This Finnish-Canadian businessman and fashion executive made headlines both before and after being convicted as a sex offender, sex trafficker and rapist. Reading about him, and at the same time remembering Epstein and his crimes, it's obvious that a pattern in the "gender war of modern times" now has been made known and proven: These wealthy and narcissistic men may seem to be creeps out of a horror movie, but, unfortunately, they are real, and their names should neither be forgotten or they themselves should be forgiven as their crimes are sent into oblivion. What they have felt free to do is a lesson to the world about what should never be accepted in a civilized society. 


Having watched documentaries about Nygard what I remember the most about him is the allegations by some of his mistresses who have said that he believes that parts of a fetus are invigorating. Him, being in his eighties - and also being very vain as well as convinced of his masculine "charm" - obviously feels in the need of something invigorating to keep up his lifestyle as some kind of "Don Juan". That being said, I suppose one shouldn't be surprised that he allegedly swears in to this special "fetus-cult" which means that elderly people - maybe also women - consume parts of an aborted fetus. To me that looks, and is, something absolutely non-allowable in a civilized country as it is some kind of cannibalism. The knowledge that Peter Nygard was accused of doing something like that makes me think of the Epstein-flock of old or middle aged-men: There were allegations of cannibalism by a woman who, lo and behold, was  disappeared. Cannibalism: https://www.wionews.com/world/was-jeffrey-epstein-really-involved-in-cannibalism-here-s-what-doj-files-reveal-1770370197051  -  True/False? Who knows for real???????

 

Nygard was investigated and sentenced some years before Epstein came into focus, and there has been made documentaries about his case which is where I got the most of my information from. 

List of links, most of them from Wikipedia, but not a full list

Documentaries

On 17 December 2020, two days after Nygård's arrest, it was reported that Discovery+ was releasing a series about Peter Nygård's life entitled Unseamly: The Investigation of Peter Nygård. The documentary aired in February 2021, and included interviews with family members and former Nygård employees.[77][78]

On 25 January 2021, CBC Podcasts released the first episode of their podcast, Evil by Design, about the allegations against Nygård.[76] The podcast includes interviews with alleged victims. It was later adapted into a documentary series, Evil by Design: Surviving Nygård, that aired on CBC Television in 2022.[79] An episode of Dateline about the Nygård case also aired in December 2021.[80]

Personal life

Nygård has ten children with eight women.[17][81][82] Nygård has been a longtime sponsor of amateur sports in The Bahamas. In June 2010, he was the main sponsor of the Amateur Boxing Federation of the Bahamas team for Continental Elite Boxing Championships, an invitation-only event in Quito, Ecuador.[83]

Honours

In 2012, Nygård was awarded a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal.[84]

In 2002, Deloraine, Manitoba, where Nygård grew up, unveiled a commemorative plaque and named a park in his honour.[85] In May 2020, the park's name was changed to Prairie Sentinels Park, after Nygård was arrested and charged with sexual assault and sex trafficking.[8

    • To me it's intriguing that this pattern of extreme misogyny and abuse seems to be an international "trend" in certain male groups of exceedingly rich individuals. As I not only see their alleged behavior and crimes as a downward step into something that's evil beyond words, but also as some sort of defiling of life and the life forces themselves I deem it absolutely non-acceptable. Nygaard and those who partook in the Epstein-"parties" may have started out as fun-seeking, but in a way innocent individuals, but by now they seem to have turned into something inhuman.
