All of that sucks… And I’m glad I’m not alone in all of the shenanigans going on in the world. And it’s great to know the difference between anxiety, driven action and action
Your childhood stories were very much like mine re: inappropriate adult responsibilities and inability to function (clean) at an adult level while still a child, with the Eternal Critic personified as Mother. Sorry, Nora. That really sucked and was totally abusive and sick. Glad the BSOD story worked out well . Yay for you getting it together so calmly. And hey, you sure did find things to write about, didn't you? Hugs!

The themes of childhood abuse and domestic violence are strong today in my life. I just talk about it in groups designed for the healing of such things. I haven't got the strength to write an essay about it. I just write the short posts about my experience in healing and what is yet to be healed. And, just talks with my caregiver, who is still in deep recovery, now that I have moved from wheelchair to bed for the past two years. I've been watching the first few episodes of an Amazon limited series called the Lost Flowers of Alice Hart. The universe clearly wants to talk to me about this stuff today.
Your writing is so powerful and helpful. As a want to be writer, each Saturday morning was designated to a particular abuse as my father
" assigned " us older kids an essay to be written during the week.
I remember us lining up in the ante-room to the "master" bedroom, holding our handwritten attempts at receiving his approval, but no, always we would leave the room in tears, beaten and abused, holding back the tears so as not to scare the next sibling in line for the firing squad.
Now 55 years later I take a seat at my keyboard and have to soothe the 10 year old version of myself..and yes I write, and finally I am ready to write to be read!
Thank you so very much for the channeling class, which is full of love and wisdom and growth and support...I love you.
PS so sorry that I didn't say to you, I am sorry for your having to endure the rage and abuse. You and your sister did not deserve such horrible treatment. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I really did enjoy this read. I learned so much about you.
I can relate to the procrastination and thinking about doing things not actually doing them. It's a major flaw, especially I'm moving next weekend. My "Editor" in life Eric Jon, Is amazing at pulling it together last minute. I'm fully planning on those classes once we settle in. Thank you so much for sharing your art in writing.
