Rants and Raves of a Passionate bear

my 9-11

Next Monday much of America will be wrapped up in the fifth anniversary of 9-11. All fine and well, I remember that day too well myself. The date for me, however, will mark a more important milestone -- 8000 days. Eight thousand days as a survivor of rape and relationship abuse, two things we don't talk about in the GLBT community It's been a long 22 years between the unsure kid who was preyed upon by a druggie asshole and the man I am now, but some days I can go right back to that day and that hour with frightening clarity.
