Survivors often feel their emotions are attacking them. Surprised when they arrive out of no where. Overwhelmed by their force. Scared they will change our lives. Our healing journey helps us realize ALL our emotions are allies when we let them guide us to life-changing choices.

Quote
For most people, their family is the source of inner power and protection; mine is a killing collapsar. Communication with my parents is always such a stress; it’s like a heavy burden I have to carry over my life… I never felt I really had a family: instead, there was a kind of a coalition of enemies unfriendly to me. The worst thing is that everlasting negativity in the environment constantly sucks the live energy out.

Quote
Emily crawled down to the floor, sliding along the wall, in the corner of the room. The girl did not show anyone that her heart was crying; therefore, everyone thought that she just did not care.
