Forward to Wesley's Journal
For a long time I debated with myself if I should post such a personal document for the whole world to see. In the end I decided that it was the right thing to do. My hope is that, for the people that knew Wesley, it will allow them to better understand what happened. I have shared my own feelings on the subject but I don't think that there isn't anyone better to describe what Wesley was going through than himself.
I still find parts of this journal hard to read because of the obvious pain that he was in and the numerous references to myself in the document. Its very apparent to me from this document that our lack of friendship [ or should I say forced lack thereof ] was very hard on Wesley ( as it was for me also )
For those of you who knew him, I hope this journal is helpful. For those of you not completely familiar with the situation here are a list of some of the people referred to in the document
