I fight through healing some days, & it is work. My hope is for better days with a person who walks the broken road with me & blesses it.

Sometimes putting on a brave face comes at a cost, especially when the narcissistic abuse I suffered was swallowing me whole. I was not OK.

Guilt, shame, blame, deflection, play victim is like currency to them, a deadly game. The only way to win is not to play, walk away to live.
