I said this to someone else, upthread, but man, I think it's important:
"And even [saying] injured isn't enough; one can get injured from an accidental fall. WE WERE DELIBERATELY TRIPPED in the service of someone else's wants or needs, with no regard for our own."
And that particular injury has really predictable consequences that we get to learn to live around.
The fact that you are here, in my journal, talking to a stranger you've got no reason to trust but doing so anyway after all that makes you stunning and strong.
