Oh. My. Goodness.
Tonight was our final night of the first Speak Out! Workshop.
And I knew tonight would be intense. That these stories would be intense. But shit. I had no clue.
Not only did I find the speeches amazing, but the combination of the fact that I know these people and that we've worked together for so long, damn. It all impacted me deeper than I was planning.
And I'm actually very grateful that it did. These amazing people have been through such horror, and yet, they sat across me for weeks to learn the best ways to speak of the horror they experienced. What!?!?! How does one express the gratitude of getting to be a part of that??
