V, thank you for reaching out to me. I didn't want to accept what was right in front of me. I grew up with that crap (abuse), and swore I wouldn't accept it as an adult....and yet somehow, I did. You are absolutely correct...now that I know, I cannot unknow.
Your warmth, support, and caring? Invaluable to me...more priceless than you will ever know. I wanted to give up so very badly, yet you lovingly showed me a better path.
I'm on a journey now...the journey of a lifetime. My emotions are still all over the place, but I know one thing for certain. I must go forward, chaotic emotions and all. I feel certain there is a destiny for me ahead, something I could never have imagined - but I can only reach it after I've completed my healing.
I've learned so much from you, and I've barely gotten started. I am encouraged by your story and your willingness to share. People like you often work tirelessly for others with little thanks, yet you never have that expectation to receive thanks. I want to thank you, though. From the bottom of my heart, you have my gratitude for opening my eyes and gently nudging me on this journey.
I have so much excitement about where this road will lead!
Thank you Anc, I look forward to more lovely, wonderful interactions. It has been my great pleasure to part of your journey to you.
I absolutely know you pay it forward. There are only a handful of us here in abuse sitches and it takes a great deal of effort to support a target. Even those of us in recovery struggle. I am sad you are here and glad you are here for our benefit and your sake.
If that makes sense?
My great pride to see you grow, I look forward to your posts with great healing, we have only just begun.
V
