People do care

I am overwhelmed by the care from people here, I hardly know you all, but I do know that the care from people here for me is just really heartfelt.

I have been in some real dark places emotionally (still am & fighting those!) I see people everyday away from here who know nothing about my life, they know what I have done with court ect but they don’t fully understand how I feel or why I have days which are a really struggle or why I’m just not over it! why I can’t move on.

But I don’t see people face to face but from the time spent even over a computer screen feels more present and a place of genuine care than I have ever felt, act of such kindness, it is sad knowing everyone here is struggling within our own daily lives but equally it is a feeling of safety having somewhere to turn to where you can perhaps be more open and free from judgment. 

There is nothing worse than feeling alone in this world, or a quote once read ‘there is no greater agony than bearing an untold story’. 

It is a bit freedom from being in a trapped space.

Helped me fight another day regardless to how scared or low I’m feeling

    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
