Dear Diary,

Although science has the potential to improve the world, I have yet to put it to good use. My unbridled ambition has turned me into a lawless and violent individual, lacking humanity and kindness. I have acted selfishly, causing harm to others without regard for their wellbeing.

I set fire to my landlord's house, attacked a shopkeeper, fooled Mr. and Mrs. Hall, terrorised them, and stole from the clergy's home. Reflecting, I realise that despite my scientific brilliance, I have been overwhelmed by darkness. My conscience urges me to admit my mistakes.

Kindness prevails over rudeness, but wrath leads to further trouble. I have squandered the opportunity for scientific discovery for personal benefit. However, it is never too late to make amends.

Griffin
