Light The Path Kate McDougall April 2021 Embracing My Emotions

  Hi everyone, Kate here. Recently things have been… a lot! Facing a whole range of sometimes overwhelming emotions, this month’s journaling prompts helped me write down the things I couldn’t say out loud.

"The Invisible Woman" "Most days, I feel like I am locked in a sound-proof box, kept in a cage...It is made of clear, unbreakable walls. I feel like a lizard or a fish kept in a tank...expected to live and thrive within these four, hard, unyielding corners. To be content with My imposed confinement, without interaction. Without meaning or purpose. I can see the outside world from inside my box...but I cannot reach it. I am not permitted to touch it. It doesn't see me. It doesn't hear me. I may only observe and occupy my space, never interact. Never be free. I am trapped inside my cage, pounding desperately on the walls, begging to be let out....but everyone keeps right on going, walking right past me. They don't hear me. They don't see me. They don't care. I am slowly suffocating....and no one comes to my rescue. I can't breathe! I am dying. I am screaming at the top of lungs for someone to help me....but no one does. No one comes. This box is slowly shrinking! The walls are closing in on me...It is crushing me! I am slowly being forced not to exist. Forced into silence. Forced to accept my fate. My voice fades. The air is quite literally being sucked out of the box...my life, caught in a vacuum. Finally, to weak and helpless to go on pleading to survive, I just give up and let it go. Each breath laborious. Hope fading. Finally, I collapse in the corner, alone, afraid, and weeping, resigned to wait for death to take me from my prison of suffering....It is my only hope of escape! I am condemned to die by apathy. I stare through the glass at everyone else, still walking past....They go on with their lives, oblivious. They speak. They laugh. They love. They dream. They achieve. And I sit there, in my box, wishing I was anyone else, but me...anywhere else, but here. Wishing someone cared. Wishing someone heard. Wishing to be seen. Wasted, ignored, and deprived...Invisible." - Laurie Penoyer-Phillips
