road to recovery - day 8

My foot is better now!
At least now I am certified to be able to shower without propping my leg, or need to wear ankle guard at home.
And I can take bus myself!
Oh yay, the rejuvenating taste of freedom is making me ecstatic!

But am I really healing on the inside?
My gum hurts again, what shit. really. this really sucks!

And... something else, even more inside.
I finally got the taste of what some of the people I am closest to is feeling
My attempt to put myself in my shoes kind of failed, because primarily I didn't really landed up in the same predicament as theirs. Mine was probably one off affair, but theirs was a plague to them.
At least I got a taste, somehow, but through another means
Gaming, and well, you can guess... constant dying and losing to other characters, and you should be able to get the analogy
And I tell you, to those who never really tasted constant beatings ... not as in personal goals, but rather not even able to survive (literally in the game).... it IS quite hard to imagine that feeling....
That feeling of hopelessness
That feeling of wanting to give up
That feeling of submission.
It is terrible.



I guess its a good eye opener for me.... and a great way to change my attitudes and thinking.
