Strength

I became... disappointed with myself recently when I realized that the last time I was strong was over two years ago. It was when I gave a speech in front of the entire student body at my high school. I revealed some very personal, painful experiences in order to help educate my peers and teachers into becoming more aware of their surroundings in order to prevent atrocities like what happened to myself in my old school.

Thinking about it now, I would not have the strength to do such a thing now. In fact, I feel as though I can't really speak about it at all except in vague and general terms. Sometimes I feel like I can't even handle thinking about it.

I've gotten weaker. And I'm ashamed because of it.
