Our experiences mould us. This we hear a lot; and we often wonder how much truth there is in it. How can what I go through mould me for the future? How can traumatic experiences make me ready for greater heights when all I wished for was death? All I wanted to do was lie there in my own sorrow and never rise again. The world is full of psychopaths, destructive, despondent and depressed people who all talk about broken, and difficult past experiences as having shaped their lives. How then would mine be different? What is to say I will not get so broken that the shards would pierce and rip me from the inside? Or that I would not fill my hands with the jagged pieces and pierce others with them?Sometimes the things we go through rip us apart into shredsbut who is to say those shreds cannot be put back together into something beautiful and formidable?At some point in life I found myself with an unwelcome companion. The kind of companion you want gone but for some reason unbeknownst to you, they insist on staying.Death was that companion. A relentless companion.Then gradually I begun seeing through the illusion that is death. Then I was able to stare it in the face and watch it quiver. Death quivered at my sight!When that happened, I knew I longer had to negotiate with it. I had overcome the fear and without fear, it became just a transition and not the end.And like the bully that it was, when it noticed that I no longer had the fear, it left me alone. Such bullies thrive on their victims fear.and I was done being a victim!
