On being heard..

A beautifully articulated piece on why talking about issues helps ......it's by a Native American poet, Oglala Lakota :

"talking about deep issues is important to a process of healing. For me, I think it’s not just healing, I would add to that a sense of justice, being heard. 

And then, on the other hand, hearing and listening to these narratives, and engaging in a conversation  — it is not about guilt, and it’s not about shame. It is about freedom from denial. It allows a liberation."
