the most life-shattering events, others will be unable to dismiss the echoes of words spoken to them or about them. We are all broken. We are all hurting.

They can only be measured by how they have altered our paths away from our potential and pushed us towards a life of reaction where we wonder if we will ever be able to regain control.
