I must never forget where I came from and what my life used to be like. I have a “built-in forgetter”, which is fueled by ego and denial.
The denial part says it wasn’t that bad. The ego part says I got here on my own.
Every day I need to remember how soul-less I became, and how I was spared from a wretched existence by the Grace of God.
God, please help me to be ok today. Thank You. Amen.
