This section is for For Survivors of Dysfunction.... becoming Thrivers... I grew up as part of a family that was abused physically verbally and subjected to humiliation and pain by a mean, constantly rejecting parent- figure who often hated his own children, especially when they showed their neediness or, God forbid, any trace of ego—and that doesn’t leave much room for a child. Father's thinking was insane-- ritualistic expectations and behavior -- while he claimed, with powerful voice and manner, that he exhibited the esssence of rational and sane behavior. He not only asserted His will but argued a very convincing case for the correctness of his opinions. There is much to my story that I will reveal only slowly, as I feel safe to do so. I have overcome much-- huge things no child should have to face, and events that have appalled others. I know I am not alone in my experiences. I am the one who must learn to live with these things. I do it by BREATHING, allowing, feeling, & reaching out for help... In my lifetime, I know I am lucky to heal enough to begin feeling even a little comfort in my own skin. To not want to kill myself, even that has been a big thing many days. Now, even in my 50's I find my tormentors' pictures emerging on canvasses that come from between my ears. I'm blessed to be able to actually commit them to pen, paper, and paint helping my recovery and to honor the pain which is a part of recovery as well--what I've lived through deserves honor, respect and honesty in the telling. After all, if John McCain ,as prisoner of war, can be a hero, why is my experience any less worthy of honor? In these pages, I sometimes speak with the soothing voice of a Healing avatar I know as Lollipop Mom--- you can be part of that too! Together we can build these pages as a resource of hope for survivors-- there is great hope and awakening to be had, so Don' quit before the miracle! Love & Healing-- A Survivor :) _________________________________________________________- Art and “heart-works” are shared in the photos section of these pages-- more can be found in at http://HeartsGallery.com. or http:survivedot.com or http://survivedot.com You are at http://wiki.survivedot.com Lollipop Mom's homepage is at http://wiki.survivedot.com/ ____________________________________________________________ xxxoooxxoo | |
