Changing my secret formula to life
I was never taught how to cook or bake growing up, but I was taught at a very young age that my voice didn't matter. The first 10 years of my life I was silenced. Now at 32 years of age (22 years after speaking out against my abuser) I still feel the ramifications of that silence. I still am that little girl struggling to find my voice. My place.
They say that there is a secret formula to life. That the events that take place always have a response. Which in turn ultimately lead to the outcome. It is in our response to those events which can create a positive or negative outcome.
It is my belief that we can have many different responses thus many different outcomes spanning years and intertwining with time.
In my own opinion, none of them are wrong. There is no perfect "formula" to life.
So last night for the first time ever, I taught myself how to bake a homemade apple pie and joined this forum.
This is me changing my response and changing my outcome. Changing my life.
I will no longer be silent.
