I used to be hard on myself for the way I behaved, but it isn’t until now that I realized it’s what I had to do in that moment to survive

My body was screaming at me telling me to let go of every single person I felt uncomfortable around   

They only knew me a certain way and I was changing

Awareness put me in my place and took the veil off

What they all had in common was lack of respect for me

I encouraged it by allowing it

As hard as it was, it was the best thing that happened to me

I was in pain and it felt like there were multiple deaths

It’s what I needed though to become who I am now

And frankly, I am proud of me
