Re: How many?
we stopped counting once we reached 100

and

from us to!

There seems to be a lot of focus on the number that people seem to have. But the true test of healing is having a positive support team, that is willing to accept all of you and not discredit them.

I am a poly that has learned to work well with each other, for the sole reason that we teach respect first to those within then we deal accordingly with those on the outside.

regardless of how many you have to heal we all must face the journey.

Oh spirit brother/sister,
I feel your pain and sorrow,
Please come and share with me.

You have carried my pain for so long,
Hear me now; you no longer have to carry it no more alone.
I am stronger now and safer.

Before I was but a child lost in a world that did not care about me.
Now I am an adult looking to reclaim myself and others within me.
You no longer have to keep the secrets of the past to keep us safe.

I freely fallow you as you to journey back to the time that you were created to carry the pain we bear.
I now stand beside you, as you face the monsters of our past.
I stand proud and strong beside you, with my weapon in hand.

I feel the pain of each strike and cut, as we relive the truth together.
I feel the pain of loss hope and the internal pr*y to be allowed to die so that it will end.
Only to be allowed to heal so that it can begin again.

I feel your pain and hatred towards us as a whole, being forced to live only to keep the others safe from the truth and harm.
I to now crave that which you crave.
For how can I to live with the weight of such truth.

In my waken moments, I now see the scares and pain of everything you carried for me.
I sit and rock, to mourn that anyone should have to endure that which you had endured for me.
But now I can also see all that we have now, the safety and freedom from the monster of our past.
Just as you shared with me, now let me share with you the truth of where we are today.
We no longer have to endure but can be free.
Please let your brothers and sisters in spirit help you heal and be free!

As we heal you, we heal the whole.
Together we heal each strike and cut.
We release each other from the chains that have kept us slaves to the monsters of our past.

We are each a part of a whole.
Weak separated but strong together.
Let us be united against those, which wish to keep us separated.

Come with me on this spirit journey, allowing the pain and scares to be left behind.
Come with me to the present and feel all that we have now.
Come knowing you never have to endure again, that which you have in the past.

Come knowing that you are now loved and cherished for everything that you have done for us, that allowed us this chance to heal and grow.
