“Today I nurture my child-within and listen to her feelings about being ignored and unprotected. I affirm her right to tell what happened and allow her to express her feelings about that. I hold her gently in my heart as she does this very difficult and courageous work.”

♡“I Have a Right to Talk About What Happened to Me”
I understand now that what had occurred in the past was not ok, and if I’d talked about it then, it would be causing even more pain. As a sexual abuse survivor, I could’ve been manipulated, threatened, or coerced by the abuser(s) who did it. Today, I’m aware that I have the right to talk about what happened to me. I should’ve been protected from sexual abuse initially. A child shouldn’t have to lose trust in adults who lack parental authority. I Have A Right to Talk About What Happened to Me! |
