Telling our story carries so much impact. Sharing our scars has FAR more positive impact than any possible negative impact. Yes, our truth will ALWAYS help someone else in their journey through struggle. But, there is a healing that takes place when we hear our own words out loud. When we hear our story out in the world from our own mouth it actually helps us as much as the person we tell. Hearing the words, and knowing its out there, is kinda like when we rip a band aid off real quick. The anticipation is uncomfortable, and that split second when we rip the band aid off stings. But, immediately after we are glad we did it. And each time after that when we tell our story, the anticipation is less and less uncomfortable. And over time it stops being about the fear of telling our story, and more about what we can do with it. Tell your story.....say the words out loud. Much more good will come from it than you could ever imagine. Be the inspiration you needed in your worst times!!!!!

It’s worked real well for more than fifty years now. 😊
