“In many ways, the pain was born of guilt. Guilt that I couldn’t turn back time and fix everything… Part of healing means confronting these very difficult feelings and emotions. For years, I wrestled with this guilt and I was angry at times for being so fixated on it. But over the years… I learned to accept and learn from the circumstances and conditions of life that had brought me to this point. Anger, pain, and guilt turned to acceptance, which then gave rise to agency.”
