TRIGGER WARNING: The thoughts expresses in the videos about the innocent comments that hurt may be upsetting. If you are feeling vulnerable please watch which caution.
These videos were recorded just prior to WCW2017. They were part of my blog on the day when we explored four innocent comments that hurt. As these words spoken in these videos are so powerful I want to ensure that they don’t disappear over time. The people who recorded their thoughts were incredibly brave. They were expressing these thoughts out loud, often for the first time. It was certainly the first time any of us had done this on camera to be shared with the world.
I spent over 50 hours last year producing these videos. It was the most stressful yet rewarding work I did for WCW2017 and the impact that these videos had was amazing. On the WCW Facebook page alone they were viewed over 2,750 times.
When I originally created these videos there were more people involved. Unfortunately due to GDPR and new privacy legislation in the UK it is not possible for me to share those videos with you here. However, I didn’t want all the videos to disappear: they are far too important for that. So I am sharing the videos that I do have permission to share …
No Kids Lucky You
Not God’s Plan
Have You Considered Adoption
No Kids Have Mine
In this last video I allow the emotions that I am feeling bubble to the surface in the hope that it helps people really appreciate that these comments do hurt.
If you have been inspired by any of these videos and wish to record your thoughts to share in the Canbace Diaries please let me know. I can help you through the recording process and give you advice on how to calm your nerves. Then I will edit and publish them the video for you. If you don’t feel comfortable with a video I can insert a static image of your choice so people can hear your words yet not see who is speaking.
Be kind to yourself …
In CANBACE friendship!
If anything I have written resonates I’d love to hear from you in the comments. I appreciate that this can be a difficult subject to speak openly about. If you don’t want me to publish your comment on the website please let me know. I will keep your words private.
