I've always loved sunflowers because they turn toward the light, even in harsh and hot conditions (I even got a tattoo on my foot of a sunflower blossom to represent the same.) Today I learned more about the seed patterns (re: the Fibonacci sequence.) I didn't grow up in a controlling environment, in fact more the opposite. But I, too, took on both guilt and shame. Thank you for sharing your story here, Meliesa Tigard.

Survivors find themselves in other survivor's stories.
