“TRAUMA STEALS YOUR VOICE
People get so tired of asking you what's wrong and you've run out of nothings to tell them.
You've tried and they've tried, but the words just turn to ashes every time they try to leave your mouth.
They start as fire in the pit of your stomach, but come out in a puff of smoke.
You are not you anymore.
And you don't know how to fix this.
The worst part is...you don't even know how to try.”

“For scapegoating to occur, a community must agree on a target who can be blamed for anything that goes wrong. Sometimes a community just needs someone to BE wrong all the time, so they can know they are right. It really doesn鈥檛 matter if the person is actually guilty or wrong, as long as everyone agrees on it. That agreement allows the community to act against the scapegoat and feel justified. They can hate, abuse, ridicule, neglect, expel, wound or kill the scapegoat and actually experience feelings of joy and well-being afterward.”

“The doors of the darkest room one had ever seen were opened
and everyone was asked to collect the pieces of themselves that they have lost with time all these years. Everyone rushed in and started searching for the pieces that would complete them but all of a sudden they saw the light in the room fading away, they turned around and saw the doors closing back again. They screamed and tried to run back but all of a sudden there were fences all around them, they lost their voice and helplessly stuck in there saw the doors closing. They lost themselves completely in the quest of searching the pieces they had lost before.”

“How will a girl like me born childrens? Why will I fill up the world with sad childrens that are not having a chance to go to school? Why make the world to be one big, sad, silent place because all the childrens are not having a voice?”

“She gave me breast and vaginal exams until I was seventeen years old. These 'exams' made my body stiff with discomfort. I felt violated, yet I had no voice, no ability to express that. I was conditioned to believe any boundary I wanted was a betrayal of her, so I stayed silent. Cooperative.
When I was six years old, she pushed me into a career I didn't want. I'm grateful for the financial stability that career has provided me, but not much else. I was not equipped to handle the entertainment industry and all of its competitiveness, rejection, stakes, harsh realities, fame. I needed that time, those years, to develop as a child. To form my identity. To grow. I can never get those years back.
She taught me an eating disorder when I was eleven years old--an eating disorder that robbed me of my joy and any amount of free-spiritedness that I had.”

“With all our understanding of the speed of light,
We're yet to cross the distance from heart to heart.
With all our fancy equipment of communication,
We are yet to listen to those unheard.”

“Later on in the day, Shrader was just getting her bag ready to go home when Fallon pulled her aside. 鈥淐ome with me.鈥� He said.
鈥淲丑别谤别?鈥�
鈥淥h, just a place. It鈥檚 really nice and I think you鈥檒l like it.鈥� Shrader nodded and Fallon disappeared as quickly as he had come. They met at the school鈥檚 front doors and Fallon began leading the way to wherever he was taking Shrader. She was curious, very curious to where he was taking her, but Shrader dared not to ask.
Fallon kept a steady pace, and he seemed confident so Shrader seemed to somehow trust him. They passed the park, and every possible idea that Shrader could think of. She knew Fallon鈥檚 plan. He was going to take her somewhere where she鈥檚 never been before. 鈥淗ere we are.鈥� He says as they stand in front of each other. Shrader looks around.
鈥淭here鈥檚 nothing here but the grass and some railroad tracks.鈥�
鈥淓xactly.鈥� Fallon says. 鈥淭hese railroad tracks have the power to hold the explanation that a human being cannot say. For example, in the 50s, African men used to lay on the railroad tracks and protest against segregation.鈥�
鈥淲hat happened if a train came?鈥� Shrader asked.
鈥淭hen they would die. They wouldn鈥檛 move, because they wanted to prove a point. If they would鈥檝e moved before the train reached them, then the protest wouldn鈥檛 have made any sense. People sacrifice to do the things they believe in.鈥�
鈥淪o what are you implying about us?鈥� Shrader asks.
鈥淵ou explained to me a long time ago how badly you wanted to be heard. You believe that words should stand tall, and not just vocally. So, what I am implying is we lay on these railroad tracks to be heard. Let people know that we are the voice for the forgotten voiceless.鈥�
鈥淎nd if a train comes?鈥� Shrader asked carefully.
鈥淭hen we die.鈥� Fallon said as he laid against the tracks.”

“I focused so much on my conscious mind that I forgot about the one beneath it, the one that wanted to talk but could only whisper. I'd suffocate those whispers and I'd feed the silence, but it was still there, hidden but not discreet as it pierced my insides with the sharpness of its thorns, growing inside me within the darkness of my soul. I continued to pretend it wasn't there, that I was okay. Because everyone else's opinions, although they shouldn't matter, they did. They did and it made all the fucking difference.”
