You are not broken. You are not a victim of trauma.
You are a survivor.
How can I get rid of my trauma? is not the right question.
The right question is: How can it help me become my greatest Self.
You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.
— C.S. Lewis
