People actually like me and like being around me. And that shouldn't be surprising, because i'm a friendly, gentle, sweet, perceptive, interesting person, with a lot of depth and a lot of empathy from having been through so much. It's not a curse, it's a strength. It's not something to be ashamed of, it's a sign of what i'm capable of enduring and capable of fixing, even against overwhelming odds!
