look right at it
🕑 Added 2022-03-19 11:34:01 +0000 UTCi’m done playing the victim.
i am not a victim.
i have been hurt, yes.
i have been assaulted, yes.
but i have power.
i design my life.
i decide my worth.
i choose where i go,
and what i do;
what i wear,
and if i care what anyone thinks.
i won’t care what they think.
i won’t care what you think.
i have power.
i have strength on my own.
i have power.
i am beautiful on my own.
i have power.
i have enough love on my own.
i have power.
i am finding more love here,
in my fear and loneliness
than i ever could have known
trying to drown myself in the distraction
of someone else, something else.
anything else.
i have power.
and the most power i have -
comes from not pushing away any suffering;
but feeling it,
finding it,
knowing it,
sitting in it,
looking right at it
and learning from it.
