September 21st, 1692
Oh how lucky I am to have such a wonderful mind for manipulation and deception. It is not my fault that I have it, but Satan’s. He gave me this mind in my darkest moments of solitude. I do know now that I shall burn eternally, due to my forgoing of redemption, which I purposely avoided. I had many a times to tell the truth and to spare others, but in vanity and the lack of attention, I had to condemn others and spurn salvation. I deny that the devil had complete control over me though. I was Salem that led me to this. Salem, in any other circumstance would have rejected me in all things. The only reason I am alive is because my uncle is the reverend of Salem’s church. In any other circumstance, without a father or husband to take care of me at my age, I would have likely ended up as Goody Osburn or Bridget Bishop.
