how this way looks like?

where it'll lead me to?

I thought you could help me.

many things happened recently.

I don't know...

you need more time?

I feel special during the first weeks

when I left home.

I understand.

Stefan.

- promise, you'll be with me.

- sure.

kiss me.

- you wanna write it down?

- don't be. - don't.

clinch, you can try with Stefan.

- do we need to study?

- today is almost passed.

I won't pursue those.

- I'll read about one more semester.

- how could you know you can do this?

from logic, I could.

this one, you don't need to read.

but you might learn something in highscool.

it's Holy Katharina.

- she's only 33.

- so what?

Hanna, when she was as old as you,

have done many good things

I think, it's not because she is a sister.

she came from a poor place with her illed body

but she stopped a war,

- when she was 33.

- oh, here it writes, she wrote the god's decision.

she fought against devils...

...and released the life when she died.

bla, bla, bla.

You don't want to understand me, do you?

I have missed for a year.

Hanna, the time, that you possess of

is a gift.

all right, it's the time for next date.

you need come to have x ray next Tuesday.

feel cold?

please close your eyes.

Michaela! we are in the town.

I wonder if we could meet

ah, so coincident.

I'm thinking of the story you told me.

I told it to the Father Borchert.

he is the parochial assistant Father.

how are you?

- your not believing me hurts me so much.

- I just wanna help you,

When I said you should see doctor.

so, satisfied?

dated with doc three times, enough?

you also wanna tell me that

I'm a psycho?

I think, everyone should have a soulmate.

- Father Landauer wouldn't make people

feel like that.

- I'm familar with your parish

yes, I remember

you are a good missionary

once I should give a cow a peace.

so, you did it?

it's Gerhards' job.

kind of simple belief.

in hard time, God is like an insurance company.

- good havest, means this company is good.

- yes, people would think of that.

I ask myself.

does it mean God's exist if there's a good havest?

or someone is illed?

people must distinguish which are real pains

which are mess in mind, and superstition.

what I suffered are all real.

so did the necklace.

I don't know, if the new pills would work.

sometimes I got this feeling.

we try to use science to explain the nature.

these things don't need explaination.

if someone is really painful

what science should do?

don't we pray for the God to help us?

yes, I'm not understand of this.

I can only say...

- What I felt, What I experienced.

- yes, why, I wanna listen?

how about things happen to you, Michaela?

because it maybe so crazy for my illness.

the world make our souls sick.

I almost doubt about it.

you know, I don't wanna ask more.

I wanna stay her, have my life.

but sometimes,

I feel I can't stop, then...

my belief gave me so much power.

you also have you belief.

this belief is more powerful than the dark things

- but I'm scraed

- hands of God are strong enough,

to protect us.

while praying, he's by our sides. - right.

let's pray?

Holy Spirit,

come into my heart.

short our distance with your power.

give me the kindness

and fearness of God.

Christ, protect me from hurt

warm me with your love.

make me get rid of the burden.

help me fullfill all my tasks.

beloved Christ,

beloved Christ,

Amen.

so someone insane, is just like this.

stop it.

these are your pills, so small?

they said, each pill everyday

no paroxysm for a year.

"Grandmaux Epilepsie"

sounds like french cheese,right?

shut up

I think what you wrote is hard to recognise.

well, I think it's good, so great!

- all right, if you think it's ok,

it's enough to the teacher.

- that's right.

and one title, called: grasp the fate.

- I'm applying the internship in Hamburg.
