8 days ago i walked into a room filled with strangers. people who's faces told a story. strangers who i now consider family.
8 days ago i opened myself up in a way that was foreign to me. uncomfortable moments were precursors to miraculousness. tears shed were much needed nourishment for newly planted seeds of hope. cries from grown men sobs of broken women all filled our ears as a joyful noises of freedom.
8 days ago the stories on the faces of the strangers whom i met were told. pain, heartache, betrayal, abandonment, sadness, and strife shared with people we had known for mere hours. healing, repair, trust, joy, strength and unity now filled the faces and hearts of the group as night fell.
8 days ago i left behind parts of me that i don't want to find again. in their place now stand 28 people who's stories i know, who's hearts i've held, who's tears i have caught and who's eyes have looked into my soul. to those 28 people i am committed. i will be present for you. i will live my truth, so you can live yours.
i am a strong and intelligent woman!
