Intimacy

To be intimate with someone isn’t about being physical with someone.

Intimacy doesn’t come from a place of physicality.

It’s about trusting someone because they make you feel safe.

It’s about sharing your deepest fears, insecurities, and vulnerabilities with someone who embraces who you are without judgement.

Someone who looks after your heart as though it’s a delicate flower.

It’s about being able to be open about your inner thoughts, your pain, your past, and your trauma to another person, knowing that they will listen with empathy and understanding.

It’s when you can reveal the broken pieces of your soul, and they respond with kindness, warmth, and love.

It’s a place where you can be your true authentic self without fear of judgement, abandonment, or rejection, because they make you feel safe…

It’s a special person who will stand beside you through all of life’s highs and lows reminding you that you are never alone in this beautiful but sometimes difficult journey we call life.

Intimacy is really about feeling safe…

Because true intimacy comes from the heart and soul…

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 ..
