Reminding us - your story counts

Thanks for showing how healthy it is to stand up and walk away from a system we were taught we could never leave. Finding our voices outside of religion is a daily work - these stories remind us to trust ourselves and say “I no longer believe and I am fine.” No gods, no superstitions, no bumps in the night. We’re free.
