Today- May 31st ***

Today. 

Today is the day that i decided to become fearless in joining a community who have similar experiences as I. Today i decided that i would be a voice for myself and for others because i know what its like to not have a voice. I want to be able to heal by encouraging, comforting, and listening to others. Through this, i can began to understand who I am as a person, a child of God, a daughter, sister, and girlfriend. Up until now i really struggled with not being fully understood by many, pertaining to the sexual abuse that i experienced; but i can tell that i am a part of a community who do understand.

Right now i feel my spirit weeping because i didnt realize how many people have suffered the way i have (which is evident from reading the various posts on here), but at the same time im joyful and glad because for once i feel that i am a part of a community that are caring, welcoming, strong, and great listeners/readers. I hope that i can be a light for you as you will be a light unto me for my healing and "daily strength".
