It shook me to my core, having composed and survived these one hundred reasons why. I’ve kept them a guarded secret, remaining unshared for many years, but the shame should’ve never been mine… These are my truths, and I sincerely hope that sharing them will help someone else struggling with grief in their healing from abuse. I encourage everyone with a story of their own to speak it, even if your voice is a whisper. Write it, even if your hand trembles and perspires while you do. There’s something incredibly powerful in knowing that you’re not alone, after all.
