One of the things I've had to
reconcile for myself
with the moral injury
is really facing what I call
the dark side of the mirror.
That shadow self,
that sense that
I participated in events
that wouldn't be something I
would choose to participate in.
That doesn't make me an awful
human being.
It just makes it
part of my story.
And I can look at that now
with some abstract
because I've done a lot of work
with my therapy
to be able to navigate that.
But until I could label
what it was,
until I could really identify
and isolate it,
it was this dark cloud
that would just follow me of -
I'm not a good enough
person anymore.
I've somehow
sacrificed a piece of myself.
