Message of Healing
I never thought I would live to be 20 years old. Now that i’m here, I thank whatever higher power that has kept me here. Healing to me, means having our trauma glide over us, instead of locking it in the vault. Recognizing that what happened to me is apart of my life story, and there’s no reason to hide from it anymore. I am the main element of my life, and it’s just added more depth to my character. I want to be able to help young girls recognize when they’re in a bad situation, when they’re struggling to understand sexuality or what happened to them. I want the person in the back of the room who thinks nobody can see them, to know that I’ve been there. I know what it feels like to think “I don’t matter to anyone,” “I’m going to die soon anyways,” “It doesn’t matter what happened to me, ____ has it worse.” You can always dig a deeper rock bottom, it’s easy to stay there. Once you find the strength to pull yourself out of the pits of despair, you might find the light shining extra bright on you.
