The author Karen Blixen said, All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story or tell a story about them. But what if a person cant tell a story about his sorrows? What if his story tells him?
Experience has taught me that our childhoods leave in us stories like this stories we never found a way to voice, because no one around us helped us to find the words. When we cannot find a way of telling our story, our story tells us – we dream these stories, we develop symptoms, or we find ourselves acting in ways we dont understand. “
