After I messaged my friends saying I couldn't make the trip, the one who we're visiting said his dad offered to pick me up on Friday, so I agreed!

Best Birthday So Far

Escape Is Possible
We are nearly there,And she's being so brave and strong,Finding strength beyond her own expectation; The plan has been ethereal,Shifting, changing, going in and out of focus,Butβ¦the one constant remainsβHer determination to leave; She's digging really deep as obstacles arise,As the situation becomes more urgent,But she has strength to match,It's an honour to witness. πͺ

Tried And True; Thank you! π
It's so amazing,To have for the first time, A network of people,Whom are on my side; Regular encouragement,And benefit of a doubt,True emotional acknowledgement,Of all that I've been through; Genuine interest,In what I do,And genuine empathy,For how I am; It's all brand new,In this brave new world, It's all brand new,Yet tried and true. πͺ
