People You May Know

[Justmehere]

I'm posting this in the relationships category because it's about the relationship with ourselves.

I watched this YouTube video of a man performing a performing a poem that had me in tears. It is not graphic, it is inspiring. The whole world failed him, but he is choosing to fight back by loving himself.
When My Rapist Showed Up In "People You May Know"

I want to fight back by finally choosing to try to love myself. Instead I try to fight back and push all the pain away my hating myself.

Time for a change.

Watched the vid and am not on facebook because my ex came up on the suggestion list for "friends/people I may know". Thank you for sharing. This is exactly why I don't do social media.

Wow. Feel horrible that this came up for him. At the same time, good that he used that experience to inspire himself and anyone who sees the video.
