Following the HROC weekend, I’m still thinking about trauma, and about its definition and healing. But these two thoughts keep coming back to me:
Trauma changes who you are.Trauma changes how your life is going to go.
After a wonderful discussion about that yesterday with a new friend, I saw this sign while driving home.
So this will make the converse true:
Healing will change who you are.Healing will change how your life is going to go.
