“You are not a victim. No matter what you have been through, you're still here. You may have been challenged, hurt, betrayed, beaten, and discouraged, but nothing has defeated you. You are still here! You have been delayed but not denied. You are not a victim, you are a victor. You have a history of victory.”

“Accomplishments don’t erase shame, hatred, cruelty, silence, ignorance, discrimination, low self-esteem or immorality. It covers it up, with a creative version of pride and ego.

“When your trust has been betrayed, the only thing to do is live, learn and let go. Otherwise the betrayal done by another will turn into hate for them. But they will not feel this hate, it will only hurt you more, growing bigger and darker. So, live, learn and let go. By living, it means they did not hurt you so deep that you can not move forward. Learn, learn to not trust this person again, and to make more of a sound judgement in the future. Letting go doesn’t mean forgetting. It means that you have let go of the pain it caused. And by not forgetting, you will learn and move forward from the betrayal of the past.”

“The mummy felt betrayed, like when a spouse agrees on a movie you decided to watch only to put on a different movie as you go to the bathroom, having to sit through the whole movie and not argue about it because it’s not worth fighting over, just boiling up inside and remembering it for later when they want their coffee with half-and-half, knowing that you put 2-percent milk in there and they won’t know, but you will.”

“Once A Sister by Stewart Stafford
In a mirror, admirably still call yourself sister?
Of festering, viperine plot and scaling threat,
Cast your brother out as a street mongrel,
Then counted coins from his dwelling's sale.
If this is a blood relative, yours is now poison,
And tears his, for none shall believe his truth,
That family acted so cruelly in his innocence,
What made his loved ones mortal enemies?
No apology will ever pass those lips, not one,
Explanations merely justify the unforgivable,
Sober fact imparts the brazen cuckoo nests,
With ignominy's profits in bricks and mortar.
