I have read your blog for a while now and whilst it sometimes makes for uncomfortable reading, I can only applaud you for having the courage to speak about the unspeakable. I think you are a very brave man, unlike the commenter who couldn't even leave his/her name.<BR/>Peace be with you.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01937022787075485707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603206.post-1140305623922689992006-02-18T23:33:00.000+00:002006-02-18T23:33:00.000+00:00Colin, I have read your blog a few times and today...Colin, I have read your blog a few times and today I'm posting 2 comments! who knew? I just read this one and it tears my heart out. It is so true, though! The worst thing, as you said, even more than the physical or sexual violation, is the loss of trust in your perceptions. <BR/>I am an attorney in the States who represents children who have been abused. Sometimes I feel like I'm paddling a canoe into a tsunami, but I do sleep at night (sometimes).<BR/>Thanks so much for reminding us in the field what the reality is for you and others who have been there.<BR/>Hugs (if ok with you)<BR/>JoanFuguesStateKnitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14271842690827237203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603206.post-1140138532789326602006-02-17T01:08:00.000+00:002006-02-17T01:08:00.000+00:00dear anonymous - thank you for sharing your pain h...dear anonymous - thank you for sharing your pain here. I am so sorry to read that you are suffering. You don't have to stay in your suffering, you can find the courage you need if you want it. It just takes small tiny steps. The day you can comment wihtout hiding will be one of those steps.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14864658805462324550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14603206.post-1140134126111221272006-02-16T23:55:00.000+00:002006-02-16T23:55:00.000+00:00Dear me, so you have found it necessary to approve...Dear me, so you have found it necessary to approve all comments. Getting some nasty ones are you Colin? Perhaps you should look to your own rather unpleasant, arrogant, stupid, blinkered, intolerant character to see why. Not that I suppose you will, you are far too smugha nd self-rightous to accept that you might just have some faults.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
