Open Wound

So how does an educated well-spoken hard-working black woman begin to dissect her turmoil filled life in the judgmental society we live in? How does she begin to engage in a conversation with her children, family, and peers, let alone with those who cannot come to grips with understanding her experiences. Having been through and surviving so much in her past, she carries the weight on her shoulders like that of a feather. Her strength sometimes causes her to appear invincible; consequently, many are unable to see or appreciate her vulnerability. Imagine walking in the shoes of a seven-year-old little girl, who is full of life, love, and knowledge. Who gets placed into a foster home after her mother had a mental break down outside on the street. The emotional trauma has a great effect on her life. Unfortunately, no one knew the time she spent in the foster home added insult to her injuries, because she is now in a situation where she was raped. How does her young mind handle this type of stress? A seven-year-old left alone to deal with these unexplainable adult events that have taken place. I am all too familiar with this story.
