Never would have thought to be here today. Mental illness is real and you are not fighting this alone. Having bad days is part of being human, it took me a long time to realize that I deserve to be here and love myself. What helped me a lot was to picture my younger self in front of me and have a conversation with her. It allowed me to understand her hopes and dreams as a reminder to why I am here today. This is an ongoing journey of self healing, but I promise as corny as it sounds, with time is does get better. Here’s to entering a new chapter ❤️

My grandparents are residential school survivors. My grandfather never had the chance to tell his story. We will never know what he had gone through in those horrific schools. During our healing journey, we throat sing. We share our stories through our songs. We must acknowledge the truth and keep using our voices for those who didn’t make it back home and for those who went through those horrific experiences. We use our voices for those who are suffering the inter-generational trauma that has and is continuously being passed down. Truth and Reconciliation is not only about hearing the stories of survivors but acknowledging what they’ve been through. My grandfather didn’t have to share his story for us to understand. Our heart goes to all. We hear without hearing. We are here for you. Giving a safe space, Artist Carey Newman created the Witness Blanket to make sure that history is never forgotten. The art piece contains hundreds of items reclaimed from residential schools, churches and more. These stories are painful, as it is important and informative. We need to know the truth to move forward. Now, you can access the digital Witness Blanket thanks to a partnership between Carey Newman, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and @telus. This is accessible to anyone online and I encourage you to take a look for yourself: www.WitnessBlanket.ca
