Our story is about what really happened...when told sounds unbelievable. The purpose of telling our story is to shine some light on a very dark subject, childhood sexual abuse and the people that facilitated the abuse that occurred in my family. This is an emotional subject that must be faced!
If someone asks him, ‘What are these wounds on your body?’ he will answer, ‘The wounds I was given at the house of my friends.’ Zech 13 v 6

A Quote
In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.
It's hard to separate something like this from "unforgiveness" or "wanting revenge".
I have and continue to attempt to basically "move on" in my head regarding some of the main players in our situation. It is literally not possible to just "forgive and forget". First of all, the lack of seeking forgiveness or the outright denial of any culpability or responsibility is very frustrating. In one case, it is very hard to believe there is not a very intentional dodging and distancing strictly for self preservation.
I've never seen the quote from MLK. It gives me something to think about that came from someone whose life and actions you must respect!
