I am currently working through a time of big celebrations and gifts from my DIvine Mother so I can relate to the strong emotions that come up from the past at times like this.

Your article resonated with me in many ways. I have also written my memoir and published it as an ebook last year. I decided to publish the paperback this year because people read it. I never thought it possible! It’s a strange feeling to have broken the silence and I’m also filled with the shame and guilt. I still get flashbacks and nightmares and life is complex but I know like you, that being positive and valuing the present is the way forward. I treasure my life, my kids and new family. It’s okay to “feel” even if it seems wrong. We do matter.
