Personal Strength, feels like real words; the potential and support. Trust is difficult. The words “forced to retire” ring hollow because at my age I should know how to conduct myself against such cruel cowardice. Coworkers began treating me the same bully behavior as the boss. Going through the correct process for support intensified the bullying. Desperately clinging to the rung’s of the ladder I fell loosing myself. He was monstrous, clever and he enjoyed my pain. Trying to hang onto my only means of support, me, I lost myself. Now almost 2 years later, I still distrust my capabilities, people, institutions. Is trusting in myself the same as having faith in myself? I don’t know. So much of what I want and need no longer exists in this country. Do I trust in myself enough, faith in my capabilities? To make Portugal happen? I have time, next year is the goal, reading inspirations is my support.
