The Impact of You
“We haven’t spoken since that heated exchange in his room after he found out about my past. I know I shouldn’t have, but a tiny piece of me was hoping that he’d be okay with it. Well, not okay, but maybe more understanding. I guess he isn’t who I thought he was, either. It was stupid to think he could be the one to save me. I’d learned long ago to rely on myself and not put too much stock in others. They just let me down in the end anyway.
I can’t change my past. And as much as I wish I coul...d, I can’t track down every person who downloaded that degrading photo collage. The only thing I can control is what I do next.
Realizing it’s time to deal with my identity issues and face my past once and for all, I open my laptop and log into my email account. I debate over creating a generic email address that can’t be linked to me, but in the end, I want my birthmom to know my name, to know who I am. I type what I had intended to be a brief message, but it turns out when you’re emailing your mom for the first time, there’s a lot to say.MoreLess
