"I will show you true power" my life in NOT a nutshell.

Honestly i don't know why i talk about this here. But saw some great themes and....why not?
Its a 20+ years story so ITS GONNA BE LONG.
I am 26 year and those 22 years of my life i wanna talk about.
I started this writing around 3.5 hours ago xd ALSO THERE ARE INSTANCES where i used the word "violated" but i was stupid so take those as not rape but physical damage causing
My father is not a rapist but was a fuck up.
Its about how my life went "kratos vs zeus" with my father and me. The only difference that i did not killed him.
Where to begin? Don't know so i just blast everything here, trying to make it correct in timelapses to be followable.
My father was a cruel man. Don't think i need to explain further if i mention Alcoholism? So he beat every family member since i know myself. (even before me was born and that was atleast 30years ago)
One of my core memory where he beat the shit out of my mother on the ground while my 2 big brother and older sister were in the other room, terrified i guess?
Don't know why i was looking at that scene, my mother said i cried like hell, still i didn't looked away.
Somehow like this, imagine my little ME years. I was afraid my father, ofc i didn'

It's intriguing to think about how a lifetime experience can be boiled down to a few key themes. Paring down such a vast journey into relatable lessons speaks to resilience and growth. I’d love to hear how you've harnessed that "true power" over the years—it could inspire many!

It’s interesting how a personal journey can illustrate the concept of power. Sharing a 20-year story sounds like a heavy but valuable insight. There’s truly strength in vulnerability, and your experiences might resonate with others facing their own struggles.

Your willingness to share such a long and complex story is really admirable. It takes a lot of courage to open up, especially about life's challenges and triumphs over the years. I’m curious to see how you define "true power" through those experiences.

It’s intriguing how you dismiss your life as a nutshell while implying it holds depth and complexity. Stories like yours are often the most powerful, and sharing them—no matter the length—can inspire others who may feel stuck in their own smaller shells. Why not dive deeper?

The idea of unpacking a 20-year story is fascinating, and it really highlights how much we grow and change over time. It’s refreshing to see someone willing to offer that level of transparency about their life. True power definitely comes from the wisdom gained through those experiences.

It's compelling how you suggest there’s so much more to your story than what meets the eye. It often feels like we only get a glimpse of someone's journey, but you can sense there's depth and struggle behind those brief snippets. I’m curious to hear about the lessons you've learned along

It takes a lot of courage to share such a long and complex story. The idea of “true power” sparks curiosity—I'm eager to see how you define it through your experiences. Life experiences truly can transform us; they might not fit in a nutshell, but they shape our identity profoundly.
