    Oh Benjamin, I am so moved by your expression of you. All that you have traversed and recovered and emerged from. I am so moved by this line, “I am learning to exist, to matter to myself, to know what I want (that is a BIG edge!), and to feel I have a right to ask for what I want.” I feel such a resonance with this commitment and edge.

    As someone who has also experienced similar abuse, I just want to say that your courage in sharing all this, and how you share it, grounds me in this work we are all doing together. I’ve thought a lot about what happens when these archetypes of mother, father, brother, family etc. step outside of the boundaries of love when we are young. How that dissolves and obliterates a certain frame for us. But here you are, in this beautiful and tenderly reconstructed container of you, such a unique frame, and I feel grateful to be learning in your company.
