Discovering True is a collection of true stories told by survivors of childhood sexual abuse. These stories and poems describe our individual journeys in search of the truth. In reading them you will experience many facets of what we have felt, heard and wrestled with along the way. There’s anger, pain, confusion and hopelessness in many of the pieces. Yet there is also hope, reclamation, joy and peace. Not all of the stories and poetry directly reference sexual abuse. Some are metaphorical rather than literal. But all reflect the journey of a survivor on the path to discovering true.
