YES, by all means.... YOU were good enough and YOU deserved to be treated with great RESPECT from your older brother.

Please know that what your brother did was not about YOU (or any thing you did or did not do) - It was about him and his inner wounds, and nothing else, YOU did nothing wrong.

I was first sexually abused at the young tender age of 2 and it continued until I was 12, and always by males that were supposed to love, care and protect me - but never did. (all 4 of them).
And then as an adult (at age 30) the abuse returned to my life for about 2-3 years.... I have told no one about the abuse that took place in my adult life.... how could I - for I froze like a little child would and did nothing to stop it.

Then I started 10 long years of therapy.... to which I am glad that I did, for I am starting to blossom again, and LIFE & JOY will return.... soon, very soon.


LoVe,
