Ah dear one, I cannot even imagine the dangerous terrain you have travelled.....but...

You have travelled it with what you had and what you know, and here you are. I would say, "What an amazingly courageous person you are!"

Would I sound like a right moron, if I said that to "try to get over something" is too aggressive? Getting over something is like trying to wrestle an anaconda with your bare hands. Tiring, dangerous and filled with torment.

That one moment of joy that you have ever experienced, is the key. Joy, like anything else is a practice, if you are too tired and worn out to practice joy, do not worry. Even if you do not know joy right now, it knows you, and will be there when you are ready to receive it.

Know that you are loved, without question, EVEN when you cannot recognise it.

Take good care, and keep talking......
