All I do is whine
bemoaning my life
and the horrible burdens I bear.
I know others have it worse.
Others have gone through worse.
But one thing I have learned is
that does not invalidate my own experiences.
It does not wipe away the slate of what happened to me.
I have gone through trauma
and survived.
Whimpering about my life helps me heal
but only for so long.
So thank you for listening
as I get back on track to working on being a better me!
