Healing

Forgiveness is but the first step

Today I begin the process of healing

Healing the wounds inflicted a lifetime ago

Cleansing myself of the pain that has accumulated and travelled with me for years

Pain that has become part of my being

Pain I don’t even notice until I look closely, listen and feel

But how do I heal? I’m not sure. With love perhaps

From today I will speak to myself with love, and say the things every child should hear, feel, believe

I am worthy

I am kind

I am beautiful

I am confident

I am smart

I am loveable

I am loved

I am enough

I am enough
