"My Message for Hope and Comfort in the Holidays"

May the New Year Bring Peace and Hope to Each and Every One of You, My Friends:

The Holidays are not readily viewed as Happy Times for those who Suffer from Chronic Illness or Pain; whether it be Mental or Physical.  But I would like to Offer My Poem of Hope in the Future for You, My Dear Friends.  I Offer You these Words of Hope.  When Feeling Down, You Must Look Up. When Feeling Pain, Reach Out for Healing Comfort. When Feeling Alone, Know that there are Those Who Care.  I am One Who Cares.  I know the Maker Cares for His Children.  The Pain in the World is Brought on by Darkness and Continues with Darkness.  But there is the Originator of the Light that Will Shine His Light Out into all Corners of the World, Rebuking the Darkness.  Reach Out Towards the Power of the Light.  Grasp On to It and Hold It Dear to Your Heart.  Know that You are Not Alone... I know this is not Easy to Do, but it Can be Done, and Know that it is True.

So it is Here that I am Wishing You the Very Best in the New Year. May it be Yours as One of Hope and Fulfillment of Your Longing and Dreams.  If You are still in a Victim Role, Throw Off that Cloak that Covers and Burdens You.  Do Not Claim Your Pain or Illness as Your Own.  Renounce those Who have Caused you Suffering and Pain.  Do not Bathe in the Darkness, but Step Out into the Light.  Take Hold of the Friendly Hands Reaching Out towards You.  You are A Survivor.  Whatever Has Happened to You, is Not You Unless You Allow it to Govern You.  You are Each Unique in Body and Spirit, and are Worthy of Life and Renewal in Spirit...  You Must Believe in the Power of You!

In Love and Spirit,
♥ ¨°º¤ø„¸¸„ø¤º°¨❤Love❤¨°º¤ø„¸¸„ø¤º°¨♥ ¨°º Prayers and Blessings °º¤ø„¸¸„ø¤º°¨♥ ¨°º

Affirmation For Breaking the Chain of Abuse

Affirmation For "Breaking the Chain of Abuse"

You have Assaulted the Body
But, You Could Not Steal My Soul.
Now is the Time
For My Spirit to Be Whole.

You Do Not Have My Permission,
I am Absolving All My Fear,
While My Spirit Grows Stronger
Your End is Growing Near.

Fact:  I have been told by a close friend who is being seen for post traumatic stress syndrome from a past history of horrendous abuse, that her psychiatrist told her that repetitive abuser's life spans are really quite short compared to the general population.  He is quite knowledgeable about these things, and I believe what she told her.  That is, many die in their late 50's or 60's or even earlier from their harsh and dangerous lifestyle, and others may meet an untimely death as a result of retaliation from their own predatory actions.

Components of Life and Spiritual Growth

Joy and Sorrow are Inherent Components of Life.
We Cannot Have One without Experiencing the Other;
How Can One Know Bliss without Experiencing Heartache?
To Be Able to Move from One to the Other and Learn From the Experience,
Is Spiritual Growth.

"Butterfly Spirit"

This is a true story of pain and anguish, renewed to Hope and Life.  It begins as a story of One, but is applicable to Oh, So Many. It is a story needing to be Told, beginning in darkness and ending in the Light.

Waking from a living sleep with a flood of forgotten painful memories of decades passed, a history of suppressed violence and fear bubbles; rising to the surface of her tortured mind. She again cries for help and is now Finally Heard. Others Join with her in Her Fight for Life and breaking away from the chains of her dark past.

It is like a reoccurring bad dream.  At first frightened and denying, she is now willing to Psychologically and Spiritually Face her Attackers of long ago. As they slowly emerge from the recesses of her repressed mind, She now meets Each One with Intent and Fervor. A little more is Revealed with each New Day, as if it was only yesterday.

She mentally faces her “Demons of Old” and their psychological hold on her. She is a True Survivor, Relentless in her Desire to be Free from her past, which has held her so long in "Mental Chains". There are No Free Days, as each day has a Specific Challenge she must Meet and Address. It is a tiring, painful Cleansing; a Purging of her Wounded Spirit and Body.

Methodically Healing, She is Now Equipped and Ready to Face Each Day, moving further Forward in her Sacred and Renewed Life.  

She Emerges from Her Protective but no Longer Necessary Cocoon, Carefully Drying her Wings in the Light, Eager to Fly.

She is a Butterfly Spirit.  

Because She is the First I have addressed here as the "Butterfly Spirit", I will honor her on this site with the Given Name, "Alpha Butterfly Spirit"....


Alpha Butterfly Spirit Asked me to Post this Comment here for Her:

Just as a caterpillar changes into a butterfly, so does a person as they struggle
through life.  We face the challenges and gain some element of peace from our faith in God so that eventually our healing comes from within.  "One who knows"
