Love this photo.

I moved in with this lady and her family aged 16 completely broken from 8 years of abuse...
We were nearly kicked off a campsite in Spain a year later as all my trauma was coming out in anger...I felt SAFE so processing my past brought a lot of pain and anger
2/2 this led to Many fights, broken friendships and relationships, college breakdown BUT did this lady ever give up on me?? NO.
Real love and connection takes time, patience and persistence especially with children with traumatic backgrounds
“Connection before correction”
3/3 from this trust and guidance I was able to repair and go through college and university...with zero support or understanding from SW. This family taught me that it’s never too later and no one is beyond help or support....love conquers all 💙
