Sometimes I feel like I’m so ready to be done with teaching. And other times I feel like, how could I ever give this up? And that’s just the reality of it. I love being a teacher. And I’m good at it.

Flashbacks + Memories
I just saw a video on Tik Tok of a woman eating food from Sonic and it took me back to the one and only time I’ve had Sonic in my life, and that was with my abuser. He had been over at my apartment in the middle of the day, as usual. When itContinue reading “Flashbacks + Memories”
Escape Anniversary
Three years ago today, I escaped. I had lived in fear for my life, for my family’s lives, every hour of every for 10 weeks. And on June 25, 2020, I did the bravest thing I’ve ever done and I escaped.

My abuser, whoContinue reading “I filed a police report last week”
Victim Blamers Need Murder to Understand Abuse
I said it. Victim blamers need the victim to be murdered to understand the power of abuse. Until then, they hold the victim as responsible for being abused instead of the abuser for abusing. So here’s my reflection: I have received more support than ever, especially lately, especially now that Mathew Berry has been chargedContinue reading “Victim Blamers Need Murder to Understand Abuse”
