The Journey

Part of our journey through Childhood Sexual Abuse is about coming to terms with the fact that more wasn't done to protect us. That those who should've protected us didn't. When we start letting go of the illusions that we created we begin seeing things more clearly. It will be painful because much of what you see know is what you've been running away from for so long. There are days when it seems that you've had everything ripped from you. Sit & try to regain composure- no one can take anything from you anymore. Childhood Sexual Abuse leaves us feeling tiny and incapable of control. You are in control now. Take it 1 step at a time. Begin too see you happy & whole. You'll get there. We are not beyond hope. It feels that way alot of the time. But healing takes time. It takes time to change all the perceptions we created of others & ourselves. It's changing our mode of thought. Be patient, you will get there. Don't let the past dictate how you live in the future. Much of what we have been through & been taught was negative-devaluing-damaging. We now have the chance to teach ourselves to love who we are, to believe that we are worthy & deserve better lives that we started out with. Childhood Sexual Abuse isn't understood by many who haven't lived it- its along road to recovery but its a road that you can walk.
