Writer Between Worlds

Soulful writing about humans and places

“But being a victim can also become a role that is repeatedly sought after, because someone knows this role too well and can slip into it as if into a shoe that fits. After all, the victim narrative presents the victim as morally superior and denies them the responsibility and possibility of action. Insofar, this narrative is a relief for the victim.”
