Still trying to wrap my head around everything. For the longest time, I thought my only value was the weight of the chains around my neck and the price tag on my skin. Now... I'm just here. In a place that doesn't smell like blood and iron. I don't quite know how to be "free" yet, but for the first time in my life, I'm not looking over my shoulder for a whip. Is anyone else still learning how to breathe without permission? #NewBeginnings #NotASlave #FindingMyWay
