"It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know. We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death." ~Eleanor Roosevelt . The terror that takes over me is greater than any other I've felt in the past five to six years. I am afraid of my past. Yes, I do think of it, but never into details, I kept having night mares about the night I was raped, I'd wake up panting, shivering, but more than anything wishing I could forget. The nightmares only stop 4 months ago after I met Rory and even though I don't dream on it anymore, I still don't think too deep into it. No one knew my fear because I never told them the mental and emotional torture I was going through.&n
