Donna-Michelle St. Bernard - Thought #9 - STRONGER

My name is Donna-Michelle St. Bernard and this is my ninth thought.   You are not stronger thanks to your trauma.  Don't fall for that.  Maybe your strength got you through it, but that was yours.  Maybe you grew through it, but that was you.  You don't need to thank your trauma, you deserved to live without it, to be strong without it, to grow without it.   I'm not trying to diminish your struggle.  I just want to give credit where it's due.   Check it out.   You survived.   You did that.  You made you. Thanks.    (Photo by Desmond Cole, music by Adot The God)
