Oh my heart….this is so beautifully written; I can see this so clearly; your beautiful little face and wide-eyes…and your father’s movements and dismissiveness.
Trust truly is the bedrock of all relationships; it’s fascinating to think about how our early experiences impact the level of trust we are capable of.
I love this writing! "He furiously flipped that swing over the bar one time, two times, three times, four…each rotation, bringing the heavy wooden board closer to the earth, closer to my head." We know what's going to happen, but the details made me breathless as I read, right up to the moment when @Nicole Jensen's little-girl trust is as broken and bloody as her head. Heartbreaking and beautifully written.
