Is emotional healing needed? Yes, so Admit One, please---Me! I had to come to terms with this, but it was definitely a delayed start. That being, realizing that I don't need anyone's permission to heal from the emotional wounds and scars that I carry. I don't require an admit ticket, other than my own. I have to make a self-help decision of intentionality and growth and move forward in faith and focus.
Yes, it starts with me--- reflecting on my life, accepting that I really do have wounds (some deep), not just bruises. I have to be accountable for my part in inflicting and allowing some of them, and loving myself enough to mend the damage. It certainly requires staying connected to God, our divine power source for all things. It is only through Him---Only Through Him---that we can ensure a focused and long-term recovery.
So, it starts with me and God! It ends with me and God! And... I'm so grateful for the people who beautifully, boldly, and blessedly contribute to the healing process in between those points. Good-hearted, genuine, grateful, and God-minded people are indeed therapy for the soul. However, I should not and cannot expect anyone else to be responsible for healing my emotional damage; It is mine...😩
PSA: Unhealed people don't wear banners or an ID tag, but their actions, words, and behavior may put the status on full display. Join me in continuing the journey of healing from an individual circumstance or maybe even several that have tried to negatively shape our life---or that we have allowed them to...
