I’ll start off with facing my elephants

The only way out is through? Is it true?

I sure hope so because I’ve been through enough to make me believe that my strength comes from talking about my elephants. That way, I can write my narrative-not with shame or guilt, but with empathy and laughter. I’m so blessed to be in a place where I can tell my younger self, "I’m sorry you went through that, and it’s okay, you’re alright now. You’re safe now.”
