Today is the first day that I’ve felt like a person in a really long time. I didn’t hear the voices in my head reminding me of everything that I'd lost.
I woke up feeling more at peace than I had in eight excruciatingly long months.
When Brody had me look into that mirror, he said something that really struck me. This entire time, I’ve been looking at my situation like Alpha Xavier destroyed me. Brody said that he may have clipped my wings, but he forgot that I had claws. The way he said it made me feel empowered.
The realization dawned on me that he may have tried to destroy me, but he never could. Xavier will never hold that power. He knocked me down, but I will be damned if I don’t stand back up on my two feet. For myself and for Caspien and Talulah.
Since I took the day off
