Last weekend I went to the launch event for an organization called Honey. Their goal is to stop the silence around sexual assault as well as change public attitude toward it, and they're doing all of this through sharing their own stories among other things. The courage and strength to stand up and talk publicly about something so heartbreaking and emotionally damaging is incredibly impressive to me. I was so proud of everyone and everything that I lost words to express it. The event was fun and sad and moving and wonderful. I was elated that so many people who in varying degrees have experienced sexual assault or known someone who has experienced it came together to celebrate Honey's goals. There were also some seriously delicious desserts on the dessert table which is something to celebrate in and of itself.
