Wow, that hit me hard and fast! "just get over it" "people who are suffering way worse everyday". Do you know me?
I can't tell you how many times I've said the same words but, you know what......it happened to me. I don't know anyone that was tied up, forced and threatened. Tormented and abused into thinking it was ok. That was me.

Then one day the top blew off so to speak...it took me 30 years past the abuse to let family, other than my wife she knew from early on, know what happened to me.
One day the ax just fell and great was the fall of it.

Now it is a brighter day and the realization is...it wasn't my fault. I put this to rest but, I will not forget it. Now, I strive to help others.

You too will heal.
Stay well and safe.
