I wear the scars of the people who’ve mishandled me. I wear them in display because they cannot be hidden without losing my identifying features.
Yet despite seeing what they’ve done to me they only recount the shortcomings and the inequities I’ve come to possess, resulting from enduring their transgressions.
Love. Be confident. Create. Grow.
