Reflection

I have always had a hard time with my own reflection. Perhaps it was due to the accumulated traumas of my lifetime thus far. As I turn inward to heal I have found immense space to hold the shame of being taken advantage of and the guilt of playing the victim. Now with all my heart, I want to express to myself that my feelings are valid and that there is space for me in this world. Last year I reached a tipping point, I forgot everything I thought I knew. Since then I have been rebuilding a new relationship with myself. One that is built upon love, inclusiveness, and acceptance. In this new story, I trust that wherever I find myself, I know I am exactly where I am supposed to be. I also trust that I will forget this along the way.
