The Dwelling

That's so true and in line with my belief that it's unhealthy to label oneself a 'survivor' of any trauma, like an identity.

True. Have a good venting, and then let go.

As a person realizes love is all there is, unfathomable changes emerge and begin to take root inside mind, body and spirit. They take you places you do not imagine.

Hi Uber,

I think by labeling oneself a survivor, that somehow helps the healing process? Trauma is traumatizing and some people never shake it. From your experience, have you found that to be true?

Hi Annie,

Venting is a marvelous way to clear the air. :D

Hi Liara,

It's getting to that point where one feels love is the answer. They have to cut the trees down to get to the roots.

Hi Alexys,

As always whenever I get to read your post it reminds me of where, when and why I'm in such condition at the moment. I remember you told me before that signs are everywhere.

Blessings!

Not crazy about the photo LOL but the sentiment - Right on.

Hi Amber,

Yes they are. This in itself is a sign. :D

Stay well my friend and pay attention to the signs.

Hi Grace,

Oh isn't that photo the cutting edge? ;D

Let the sentiment carry you.

Rather than cut the trees down to get to the roots, it is also possible to slide down the hollow trunk or fit through that crack in the side to get to what you need. Many paths lead to the same destination. Thanks for inspiring a new outlet for creative expression.

Liara,

Many paths may lead to the same destination, but the destination is not the same for many paths.
