It is so easy to get caught in a trap of feeling powerless. This is one of those quotes I posted as a reminder to myself. As someone who is different I often feel overpowered by others. When that happens I have to remind myself, I have a right to be here, I am here for a reason, the world needs me to be who I am and I do have power. I think people who have experienced the abuse of power by others are also sensitive to how they use their personal power which further complicates matters. But as the quote reminds us if we don’t claim our own personal power we allow others to take it. Blessings — Genie

You are right, Genie. Even I feel sensitive because I do not want to hurt others
