Tooky History: Clipart but potentially triggering

@Former-Member wow what a powerful way to share your story. It says ssoooo much. It would be scary because it is 'you'. Thankyou so much for sharing with us 🙂

Thank you so much. @MissG much appreciated 🙂 Yes it was scary, because I didn't know how it would come across. So super happy for your kind words.

Hey @Former-Member. Well I finally made it to your new thread. I promised I would, right?

Your clipart story is very powerful, very real. I also found it very upsetting, and difficult to read as tears coursed down my face. A highly emotive experience reading your story in pictures. But I guess that is what it really should do. I believe I understood all of it, except perhaps the 3 little figures with the lids to their head lifted up. I didnt quite 'get' that bit? Please dont feel you need to elaborate though. Unless you really want to. Its your story, and we are just on the outside looking in, not living it like you are.

I see yesterday wasnt a good day for you. Are you feeling any better today perhaps? I sure hope so.

@Former-Member I'm curious.... do these (above) clear it up? Or do you need me to explain it further?

... and thanks so much for the little bear... sooooo cute 💝 and re the tears.. I had them too I had to walk outside a few times when putting together that middle section.. yucky stuff!!

Tooky

Ahh huh! Light bulb moment @Former-Member. Yes, thanks so much, I do get it now. I couldnt see all that detail in the original.

Yes yukky stuff indeed. And I went through it all again this afternoon, braving another look. And again I cried. No wonder you needed to take some breaks putting it together. Its a brilliant concept though, and I commend you on a job well done. Very brave of you, to say the least.
