When you do lift your head enough to see the tiny spark that is still within you, despite everything that has happened or is still happening, you can find your way out.
This spark is actually a hint of your true identity.
Not the version that was imposed on you.
That one is a lie.
But this tiny spark, it is the promise of who you really are.
You will listen to it.
You will come back to it, over and over.
And it will hear you.
And it will start telling you more about who you really are.
And it will give you the steps to take, as you can, to get out.
And you will find another place, a new place, a place that recognizes you and honors you and respects you.
And you will not have to live in that other place any more.
And you will find with relief, that you are not and never were, the person in the lie.
You are who you are.
What you define.
What you choose.
And you can choose wisely, if you listen.
