Musings of the Mad

I’m going through something and this helps. And I don’t know why but posting it here instead of keeping it private helps too. It just feels like someone else can find strength in it too.

Strong

Look, Ben.

You spoke your truth.

No one can hurt you when you do.

Stop worrying about that fact getting you hurt.

When you haven’t done anything wrong.

I know you are frightened,

But son, this is sooth:

(Which is just another word for true)

I am on the alert. Nothing can harm you.

I will be be strong.

If challenges come from you speaking your truth,

They are only there to help growth.

And we didn’t say “problems,” did we, my boy?

We are going to be fine. I need you to know.
