The letter, one I have awaited for, spent time meticulously trying to prepare to give the best opportunity for myself to be heard
It arrived today and I think sadly I already knew its outcome would not be positive but actually seeing it, I go back to how I let them define my worth
It was the hardest battle I have ever fought and I have never felt so misunderstood or poorly treated
The demons are haunting, the injustice big but I know that I will deteriorate rapidly if I let myself stay where they left me seated
So I have to rise above the hurt, the suffering, potentially another person who has slipped through the cracks
And that's why I'm so disappointed because I know this is not an isolated incident, the system has failed many and has not acknowledged their lacks
I am not sure how to release such a weighted experience, I know it will be a process and I need to allow it the space and time
I will try to remember they don't order my worth and though it felt they devalued my sense of self, I can choose to incline to myself and be kind
