dear em,
a new member quoted kahlil gibran in her signature and it relates to where you are now:
"many of us spend our whole lives running from the feeling, with the mistaken belief that we cannot bear the pain. but you have already borne the pain. what you have not done is feel all that you are beyond the pain."
you have survived this hideous abuse already and it will never be worse than it already was and you got through it.
you will heal. you are healing now and it will continue to get better. give yourself the benefit of the doubt, even though you feel weak and hurting now - IT WILL NOT STAY LIKE THIS FOREVER, I PROMISE!!!
i can promise this because i am doing this kind of work too and bit by bit getting better all the time. it is easier for me to remind you than to remind me when it happens to me. that is why we are so good for each other. strategic reminders are a gift we give each other. hugs and more gentle hugs!!!!
leslie and her pixie pals-----> earthmama !!!!
