Telling my story was the most difficult thing I have ever done.
My voice was repeatedly silenced as a child, and I locked those memories and emotions safely away in my mind where I thought they would stay forever. That little girl was too wounded to stay quiet. She wanted peace. She wanted happiness and for that to happen, she needed my comfort, compassion and understanding. She finally got her voice.
These are a few reasons why I share my story:
It empowers me.
It allows me to feel.
It connects me.
It gives me purpose.
It is my right!
So, when you get the opportunity and it feels safe, I hope you speak up. And let your voice shake (as mine does almost every time)!
