Last night’s writing workshop was very thought provoking, listening to someone being so honest and open about struggles they have faced throughout their life, and how brave they are to share these experiences.

Some of this is unimaginable to most, but brings to mind both near and far memories of things that I have felt the need to do or been through, locking them away in my own mind never intending to share, being too ashamed and embarrassed.

In the past I have written down stories about my past, but have never kept them long in case someone should find and read them. After listening to the session I now know how important it is to document these stories, and gained some useful tips on how to go about this, in a safe manner so as not to put blame on myself or others. Thank you
