What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why?
By BoJenn
Women are vaults.
Not empty metal,
but chambers lined with memory and fire.
Inside, they store what the world says
they must never speak—
the griefs, the violations,
the moments that cracked their innocence
and demanded silence as payment.
They walk through life appearing whole,
yet carrying stories carved into their ribs.
They laugh, they mother, they build, they survive—
all while locking away what others
fear, deny, or refuse to see.
But even vaults can open.
Even steel can speak.
And when a woman finally turns the key
and lets her truth step into the light,
the shame that was never hers
melts away like frost in the sun.
She was never the sinner.
She was the survivor.
She was the vault that held
what no one else could bear.
