My dad and I once had a disagreement over him using the adage "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger."
I said, "That's just not true. Sometimes what doesn't kill you leaves you brittle and injured or traumatized."
He stopped and thought about that for a while. He came back later, and said, "It's like wood glue."
He pointed to my bookshelf, which he helped me salvage a while ago. He said, "Do you remember how I explained that, once we used the wood glue on them, the shelves would actually be stronger than they were before they broke?"
I did.
"But before we used the wood glue, those shelves were broken. They couldn't hold up shit. If you had put books on them, they would have collapsed. And that wood glue had to set awhile. If we put anything on them too early, they would have collapsed just the same as if we'd never fixed them at all. You've got to give these things time to set."
It sounded like a pretty good metaphor to me, but one thing I did pick up on was that whatever broke those shelves, that's not the thing that made them stronger. That just broke them. It was being fixed that made them stronger. It was the glue.
So my dad and I agreed, what doesn't kill you doesn't actually make you stronger, but healing does. And if you feel like healing hasn't made you stronger than you were before, you're probably not done healing. You've got to give these things time to set.

I love and support Amber Heard forever and always, I’m glad she found a great resolution to this emotionally exhausting ordeal. First of all, I absolutely believe her appeal would have been successful (clearly that man’s team did too) since she had plenty of evidence for it, as well as having an appeal team who had never once lost an appeal. But this woman has been to trial twice, winning in the UK. Disappointingly, the American legal system failed her as it has failed so so sooo many victims before and after her.
That type of a physically and emotionally exhausting ordeal…your worst moments in your life mocked because your abuser was a celebrity, I don’t know how she had the courage to survive that. I understand completely why she decided against another trial.
And Amber Laura Heard settled on her own terms, admits NO guilt, doesn’t have to pay a CENT and no gag order. They knew she was gonna win that appeal if she went forward with it. This outcome is amazing.
Even when it looked like she was destroyed , she still came out the other side unbroken and FREE.
I’m so happy she’s seen how the tide is turning, more and more people support her every day, but I’m proud to say I supported from the start. I’m so happy for her and look forward to seeing more of her now that this is over ❤️

Johnny Depp is a wife beater and there are currently ZERO judgments that say otherwise

When asked what charity to donate to as a gift for Amber Heard, she often just says, “donate to a local women’s shelter.” It just so happens that this holiday season, what’s local for me is Austin, Texas — a place that I’m sure is close to Amber’s Heart. The SAFE Alliance serves the survivors of child abuse, sexual assault and exploitation, and domestic violence in the Austin area. SAFE is committed to providing counselling, advocacy, legal assistance, and shelter for any individual who experiences violence and abuse, including those in the LGBTQIA community. SAFE has created a task force dedicated to ensuring survivors of the LGBTQIA community have a welcoming space. In the spirit of giving, I would like to give a gift to Amber Heard by donating to the Safe Alliance, and I ask that you join me in doing so.

Amber Heard is finally free from her abuser. She will not have to pay him a penny (insurance will cover the $1 million), she has not admitted any guilt, and going forward she will be able to speak about the truth as much as she wants. Depp’s team must have been scared of her appeal to settle this much. Now she can (hopefully) live peacefully.
