I believe that I was led on that path so that I may shed light for others unable to do so for themselves. I have been touched by those that contact me after reading my story.. people that open up to me about how they were victimized. I know that there is a higher purpose and I welcome the challenge.Dakini Veronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03575196774052931603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2633257993897419898.post-90675703832502478072011-07-31T18:48:52.535-07:002011-07-31T18:48:52.535-07:00“Why do we (victims) walk around thinking we have ...“Why do we (victims) walk around thinking we have done wrong?”<br /><br />Well, if you were told to say nothing, then how could you avoid feeling shame since it feels like you were the one who did bad. Why be quiet or say nothing if you are innocent, right? In fact, most of the world tells us to say nothing of what is done to us against the law. I know rape victims of doctors who are not allowed to say they were raped and name names! Why? Law protects people from prosecution and loss of rights from breaking the law without good proof. But it should not protect them from having their character exposed by such testimony. From this, there should be no protection.<br /><br />Anything that happens to us should have total protection and freedom of speech and publicity. But being told to shut up or be sued or jailed, victims are raped or whatever a 2nd time. The system is the problem and what a problem it is. We protect guilty professionals while condemning victims to silence and shame. Tell me, what is wrong with that?<br /><br />We are told its our fault because those telling us are nasty and mean and also know better but do not do better. We got to stop blaming the innocent because they are innocent. Those hurt or harmed and who lost their innocence often like to destroy it in others. You have chosen not to do this. Thank you! It is those on power who love to promote more harm. They do this because they create lots of harm and want to cover it up. So its all your fault now, you know. Those in power did nothing, right?<br /><br />I love what you have done. But I am also going to challenge you to go one more step higher. Recognize that what has happened to you was not an accident. It is carefully contrived to cover up harm and evil. You know the harm and evil. I will try to point out the cover-up, if allowed and if you dare.<br /><br />Everything you describe such as “You are no longer capable of making the right choices and are often led a recurring path through the darkness, with an insatiable appetite for destruction.”<br /><br />Exactly! You understand it all very well. And the next as well:<br /><br />“There is something inside urging me to press on.”apollohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02040184843184207525noreply@blogger.com
