You hurt me, and I apologized.

you hurt me, and I apologized.

This is my childhood room, as a child I wasn't one to stand up for myself. I constantly took what was given to me without a word. It was hard for me to find a voice for myself outside of my home. Although I was not really bullied as a child, I felt singled out by both myself and my peers. Up until the sixth grade, I stayed in the foreground, didn't make myself well known. I avoided conflict at all costs. The phrase "you hurt me, and I apologized" comes from all the times I let the words and actions of those around me affect my person. Now I have learned to be my own person. Not everything is my fault. No one can compromise my character. The dead flowers and box labeled trash represents the death of the old me.
