The first one:
I kept adding layers, but it still wasn't 'dark' enough...This man influenced me so negatively: he punched me, he dominated me, he mistreated me, and he threw me into full-blown anorexia , and bulimia later in life, which was to last for over 30 years.
The second one:
Still not right....The third one:
I HATE HIM for the way he still hurts my eldest son, to this very day!
We all have negative things that happen in our lives Soul. I do hope you can let go of the hurt. I hope your son gets away from whomever it is that is awful to him. Life is too short to let someone hurt you. Peace.
ReplyDeleteGood that you are processing all of this. My hope is that it will leave you a happier and healthier human being. I also hope that if it becomes too much you will seek out a professional to help guide you where you need to go...sometimes doing it all by ones self can become overwhelming. Be careful friend. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow much more real are you now because of your experiences at the hands of this relationship? How much more easily are you able to respond to the pain of others and pray for them? How much more developed is your artistic expression because of the experiences that have added so many colors and hues to your spirit?
ReplyDeleteIn all cases, I'd say greatly...so find it in your heart to thank him for giving you the fertile ground to become to bright spirit you are now. Even if it is only a whisper, whisper, "Peace be with you. Go in peace. Go."
that's the amazing thing about this process -- pulling that stuff up, holding it in our minds, then our hands ... now 'that man' is contained on paper, and so maybe all the negative SH** can be, too. Except where it concerns your son, I agree that is much tougher. I like how the book says that even though we find a 'negative' entity amid our SoulCollage groups, we never know what they have to teach us ... Holly's comment really brings that point to life.
ReplyDeleteI hate him too! Bastard. I would be happy to beat the shit out of him for you if I ever meet the son of a bitch!
ReplyDeleteyou are in good grounds now and having a good life-----i admire your strength and your openness. Peace.
