Sharing is Caring

I made the determination to engage in dialogue with fellow young women who are also fighting against their inner darkness or doubt. It's easy for me to withdraw into the shadows of corwds and just watch. But by engaging with others I naturally learn more and so.... During my Buddhist retreat in Florida I did just that.

I know I have a greater mission in life, to help others by sharing personal stories of victory over violence. These dialogues were so absolutely encouraging. I met a young women who was a survivor of sex trafficking and who has made it her mission to help other victims of sex trafficking. Another young women who had suffered from molestation, continued the pattern of her abuse in her romantic relationships and made a determination to get out of that situation so she could break the cycle for her daughter. 

I was so thankful they shared with me. Amazing, right? So again, I'm enjoying this moment and being appreciative of the place I am in life. I'm open to the experience and must keep sharing these stories. I know I'm encouraged, aren't you?
