Mensaje para una sobreviviente
The most powerful story of hope for me has been focusing on the stories of survival where against all odds, people have survived. One of my favorites is hearing about survivors in Italy who survived a plane crash. When they realized no one was coming to their rescue, they started walking through the Andes mountains in the most horrific winter conditions, in search of help. They focused on that one next step and got to safety. I believe in miracles big and small so look for the glimmer of hope in the smallest things, like that one next step. A friend shared about how she found dimes in the most odd places and when she was looking for a sign of hope. Then I started to see them and find them. Her story inspired me to look for signs from the universe that there is something greater than myself, watching over me. My frequent dime sightings confirm for me that glimmer of hope and reassurance that I am on the right path, regardless how traumatic and hard life seems. I am a survivor and will continue to work towards being an inspiration for others while taking actions to hold perpetrators accountable.

My healing journey is about learning what I need and when. I will ask myself that question to turn my focus from outward to inward and find that is what works for me. I also have found if I take action steps towards holding my stalker accountable, I feel less like a victim and more empowered.
I have been stalked by my neighbor for over 6 years. His so called drug of choice is being a peeping Tom and voyeur. I feel visually raped by this man. He has avoided being held accountable for decades. I stood up for my rights and did what I could to stop him before I moved to another state. He hasn't stopped stalking and being a predator. I have witnessed him stalking others and being a peeping Tom but since I wasn't feeling heard or taken seriously by the mountain deputies, I didn't report him doing what I witnessed him doing to others, just what he was doing to me. I stayed focused on my personal legal system journey, which seemed to only compound the trauma and issues, since every step of the way, I was victim blamed and shamed, while he remained free to continue his predatory ways. I haven't given up and I won't. I may be the only one with the most evidence and loudest voice he will ever encounter. He is 72 yo and shows no signs of stopping so I will not stop until he is held accountable. Thank you for your website and all you do to support people like me on their journey towards healing and connection. I feel supported and heard already by spending time here.
