They didn’t burn witches.
They burned women.

Women who knew too much,
felt too deeply,
spoke too boldly,
and refused to shrink to a size that made others comfortable.

Women who owned land,
who healed with herbs,
who birthed children,
who led communities,
who dared to think differently.

They burned women who said “No.”
No to silence,
no to control,
no to being owned.

They burned women who refused to kneel —
because a woman standing in her power
is far more dangerous than any spell could ever be.

It wasn’t magic that terrified them;
it was autonomy.
It wasn’t sorcery they feared;
it was a voice unbeholden to their approval.
It wasn’t witchcraft they hunted;
it was independence dressed in a woman’s skin.

So remember —
history didn’t call them witches because they cast spells.
They were called witches because the world wasn’t ready for women who didn’t need permission to exist.

She's not crazy, she was abused. She's not stupid, she was manipulated. She doesn't have an attitude, she's protecting herself. She's not bitter, she's speaking the truth. She's not hanging onto the past, she's been traumatized. She's not acting weird, she's lived a nightmare. She's not weak, she was trusting. She's not giving up, she's healing.

These words resonate deeply because they speak to the profound impact of trauma and abuse on individuals. When someone experiences trauma, it's common for others to misunderstand their behavior or reactions. They might be labeled as "crazy" or "difficult," but the truth is, they're often just trying to survive.

The trauma and abuse they've endured can leave lasting scars, making everyday situations feel overwhelming or triggering. Their "protective" behavior is a coping mechanism, a way to shield themselves from further harm. When they speak out or share their truth, it's not about being "bitter" but about finding the courage to confront their experiences.

Healing is a journey, and it's not about "giving up" but about taking small steps towards recovery. It's about acknowledging the trauma and working through it, rather than letting it define them. By recognizing the impact of trauma and abuse, we can offer support and understanding, rather than judgment. We can create a safe space for survivors to heal and rebuild, acknowledging their strength and resilience.

the pain of family ostracization is profound, but becomes a special kind of hell when they support our abuser. this act does not merely break trust; it inverts reality and commits a fundamental betrayal of evolutionary biology. the very people evolution wired to be our sanctuary have become agents of threat, leaving us and our children exposed in a way that feels both cruel and unnatural.

it's a violation of the most ancient, unspoken covenant of our species—the primal promise of protection. it severs not just bonds, but the very roots of any sense of safety in the world.
