Strong Women

I never had one of those lives where I could take it easy and just relax.

While everyone else could sit back and enjoy the ride, I had days full of challenges and nights full of struggle.

There wasn’t time to rest or the chance to do what I wanted..

For as long as I can remember, my life has been a journey of fires and storms.

Fires that tried to consume me and storms that were intent on drowning me..

None of that ever stopped me, it only made me stronger.

There were many times that I was forced to my knees fighting for survival in a world that seemed determined to bring me down..

But each time, I got up, dusted myself off and found a way to keep going.

No one ever gave me much of a chance to make it, but then, I don’t need anyone’s approval or permission to be the independent, strong and empowered person that I am.

I’m not the one who will ask for help because I’ve never had anyone helping me during the hardest times of my life.

I’ve had to fight, battle and scrap every step of the way for everything I have.

So, I definitely don’t need to be fixed, saved or completed and I’m not holding out for a hero.

I learned a long time ago that no one was showing up to bail me out of the hard stuff..so I did what I had to do and became the hero of my own story.

Maybe I don’t have a fancy costume or have a made up name, but i do have a superpower:

I’m fiercely unstoppable, each and every day.

That doesn’t mean I don’t get knocked down, that doesn’t mean I don’t have bad days..

But I don’t stay down and l’ll never give up.

So, all the times that the world and life tried to break me?

All that did was make me stronger,wiser and better.

Now, thanks to all the people that hurt me, all the days that shattered me and all the times that I failed,

I know that I can do anything and overcome the obstacles that crash into my life.

I’m more than just a person, a brave heart and iron spirit.

I am a strong woman..and there’s nothing I can’t do.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
