You Get to Decide What it Means
Dec 18, 202400:59:24Tap to summarizeWhat I wish I had heard after my abortion:"You get to decide what it means." ☀️💛☀️After abortion our thoughts can swirlcycleand torment us.Birth control can’t be trusted.People can’t be trusted.I can’t be trusted.Brains are always looking for a way to categorize and catalog our experience,but as clever as they are they don’t always have our best interest in mind. We get to decide; we can put our brains to work for us not against us. We get to believe anything we want to believe.We get to decide.Abortion showed us what to trustwho to trustand how to trust. I believe that some things in life pick us…That’s exactly how I feel about my abortion.I don’t just think abortion picked me to teach me a lesson. I believe that my baby picked me so that I could do this work, so that I could help other women find the inner peace and strength I was able to access before, during, and after my procedure.
