Re: forgive yourself

Here is a consideration for you~~

Just stop thinking it. It could
be that simple. Just stop...

It would seem to me that yes,
you were violated, but even this
violation can become a thing
of the past if you allow it to.

Talk to yourself and find out
what it would take for you to
find your comfort level again.

Others can help you feel comfortable,
but really, only you can feel
comfortable and know when you
are. It may be a challenge to
dig deep within but have those
cries when you are alone and
feeling safe. Those are a part
of your healing, and THAT is
normal. It shows you care, and
that is a great human quality.
You are not dirty, but you were
demeaned. It was not right. Still,
its your choice, stay here in
your mental misery or go on.

You can probably imagine how
many other walking wounded are
around you. You are not alone.
In the moments when you do face
those memories, process what
you can and press on through to
where you will find your comfort
zone.

I can also recommend reading or
listening to "The Power of Now"
by Eckhart Tolle. When I am feeling
stressed out, I like to put a CD from
his audio book in just as I go to bed.
I immediately begin to listen and there
is no room for inner looping of inner
dialogue and thoughts which do not take
me where I want to go.

I want to go where I feel peaceful.
I chose not to be afraid, and not
to embrace hatred. Love yourself.
Forgive yourself. The rest will
take care of itself.

best wishes,
Zoe
