and window shopping


I gave him some of my...
I never know what to say to him


other than ask grandma


my brother was a good role model for him in a lot of ways


and the two of them really care about each other
I missing reading stories to him

Some day, maybe when my life is more settled,

I might find a way to answer my nephew's question about his father

I wish I could do it like in North Country


The counsellor of the day was not helpful with this either


How do I tell my nephew that his father raped his mom ?

What words could I possibly use ???
May no, waiting on repairs

June ?

About my blog

This is basically my space to spill out everything I'm thinking and feeling.

Please note that some of the content here may be triggering.

What I write here is just me being honest with myself. Mostly just venting about things, realisations, and my path through healing.

There will be talk of CSA, SA, R, SI and ED here.
