> The fear you feel is from events you've already survived. You've already proven how strong you are.
This blew me away -- I never once saw that. I did already survive the events that traumatized me. I already know I can survive them, because I did -- no matter how much damage it may have done me.
I still wonder, though, why it's even harder to say it -- in some cases, it's harder to think about it directly -- than I think the events themselves might have been. (In some ways, at least...)
That's amazing, Daisy -- thank you for this perspective. Maybe it will help.
