A Letter from Kara

Rachel,

Thank you for your blog. Your writing strikes at my core. I am in my 30's and still discovering how being raised in a cult affects me. My thought patterns, insecurities, even some of the ways I am unconsciously raising my children. 

I firmly believe our past makes us who we are today and don't harbor hatred. If I didn't see such hypocrisy so vividly I wouldn't be who I am today. However, I think in my bid to move forward I have not given enough thought to how my past is possibly dictating my present and future. 

Reading your blog has given me insight and provided motivation to do some internal investigation.

Do I know who I am? Or am I who I was told to be?

I thank you for your honesty and openness.   Lots of food for thought.

Kara
