Empowerment often begins more subtly, with only a narrow ledge inside ourselves wide enough to hold a crumb of resistance.
I often wonder why this is the case; why must it be so much harder to get a footing on the path out of these powerles feelings. It's true that writing helps sort out one's mind and I want to use it as a tool more often than I revert to simply ruminating on the intimidating existence of disempowerment. The most important thing is that we can find and build that resistance at all.
