kitsune89's blog post - Day 4

Today was a free form assignment. Just to write three truths we know now but didn't know "the moment pain's arrow pierced your heart". A kind of message to our inner child and/or victim. Mine may seem repetitive but my inner child is stubborn as fuck in her self punishing ways.

"I am worthy. Of this life. Of these gifts. Of love. Of power. Not an outcast put here to suffer but a cosmic being with a higher purpose. Not an ugly mistake but a beautiful warrior on a mission since my first breath. Not doomed to suffer but forged in fires and trials meant to strengthen this spirit.

The things done to me were not my fault. They were not divine punishment sent down to break me. They were the deeds of a sick and broken man. Nothing I did caused those actions or planted those thoughts. The universe never "had it out for me". I am a daughter of the stars.

Pain is never the answer. It may comfort with its familiarity but it will never heal me. I must be still and see who I am. Lashing my Self and pushing away love only takes me farther from my path. I am made of beauty and love, compassion and healing power. I am meant to rise above suffering, not build a home in it.

Rise, my love."
