My life had been hard, but the past... It was a part of me, but it wasn’t me. I had a future, possibly a beautiful one where I wouldn’t be a...a victim, and yet, when I got lost in my head or let what Mr. Henry did shape my decisions, I wasn’t embracing that future. I wasn’t acknowledging everything I had. That...that had to change. And I thought, by realizing just that, becoming aware, I was changing.
