I would bring myself out of my shell, play with other kids , talk more, get involved with activities, learn different kinds of things, enjoy being around people more, be nicer to the people I once met, be more courageous and daring, I would not pass off good opportunities and lots more.

I'd have reported to my parents that I was raped by my neighbour, now he's dead, a terrible death by the way, and I'm grateful to God for that.

Inthemoment:


You could research 'Inner child work'
It's an assignment based on going back (mentally, spiritually, and emotionally) to those moments and giving yourself what was denied you. It helps to release the pain and rejection associated with the experience. It worked for me.

I was able to forgive, let go, and move on, over a short painful period of time.

Though the experience affected me emotionally and my interactions with men for a long time, hearing of his death made me cry uncontrollably for a week, but that marked the beginning of mental healing and freedom, remembering that ordeal brought sadness no doubt, but I'm good and over it smiley

Value humanity, not religion. Respect elders, read & study tirelessly, follow a cause passionately, learn a musical instrument, care for others, take to correction & love genuinely

That for all the love i would later show, i should expect nohing less than scorn and hate.
Never trust people, they dont value the word 'loyalty'.
Its a man eat man world, ensure not to be the prey.
Never give up.
I had a sh!tty past, but i wont let it determine my future.
@fountainofyouth, i can relate. I was nearly raped at a young age too by an uncle. He did every nasty thing but didnt get the chance to penetrate.
