“Wandering"
What’s the point of wandering?

“When I began speaking out about what happened to me, many people didn’t want to hear it. They kept telling me to ‘get over it’ or that I should be happy he’s no longer in my life. What they don’t seem to realize is that I was abused and terrorized by this man for decades, and during all of that I lost my voice and I nearly lost my mind.”
