Convictions

For those who have found refuge in the illusion of distance, shielding themselves from perceived threats to their ‘liberties,’ a formidable question emerges: How does one anchor themselves in unyielding ideals—emotional, material, and ideological—while navigating the relentless tides of a world in perpetual motion? How does one remain steadfast without severing the delicate threads of human connection?

Let us turn our gaze to those who stand immovable, their convictions etched in stone, their defiance an unbroken anthem against the symphony of change. These are the architects of their own fortresses, those who would rather let empires of love crumble, careers disintegrate, and entire lifetimes be rewritten in the ink of resistance rather than surrender to dictates they deem unjust. We may wonder: What compels a soul to clutch at grievances with the grip of eternity, to wage wars that scorch the very ground they walk upon?

It is not merely fear of consequence that drives such defiance. No, it is the primal fire within—the indomitable human spirit that rebels against the yoke of perceived tyranny. It is the ancient, sacred call to forge one’s own path, to sculpt triumph from the raw material of adversity, even if that triumph is born of rage—a rebellion against the hands that seek to mold them.

Yet before we cast judgment upon those who refuse to yield—whether out of self-interest or what they deem a higher calling—let us recognize the sanctity of their resolve. Some will forsake the world before they betray the compass of their own soul, believing that in their resistance lies an unspoken justice, an inviolable truth.

But to those whose fear of letting go has become an anchor rather than a refuge, hear this: The world is not waiting for you. It is not pausing, nor pleading for your compliance. It is shifting, evolving, dancing forward with or without your consent. If you cannot meet it with courage—if you cannot surrender to the tempest without drowning in it—then, my dear, it is time to awaken.

Dare to venture beyond the perimeters of your comfort. Chase knowledge like a lover who leaves traces of wonder in their wake. Let new experiences unsettle you, let fresh perspectives sculpt the edges of your understanding. Fall in love with the unknown, and in doing so, reclaim your passion for existence itself.

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 ..
