1 年A friend of the family just described her childhood trauma that followed her through out life. She looked at her picture from when she was a little girl and realized God was with her every step of the way and she took some of what she dealt with as lessons. She said she feels free from all of the darkness. In 23 years, she just shared who she was. Now I understand why she was always so quiet around others and she’s protective and such a good mom to her own children. I think she’s free because she’s talking about it too.
