Learning to accept my body, to love it, is a big focus for me because when I made the decision to live, I was sentencing myself to this life in this form. Until very recently, that form has been a prison. I've been so angry for so long and before I could even begin to figure out how to unlock this cell, I had to acknowledge my anger. The anger towards my jailers, the people who broke me, who ripped me apart piece by piece. This is where it begins, but it's not where it ends. I am free, but I was not born free.
