RETURN TO SENDER

One of the greatest obstacles with traumatic experiences is undoing the things we’ve internalized. It’s common for those who’ve experienced trauma to feel as if it was their fault; that they did, are, wore or said something that led to the hurtful experience.

However, as we Heal, we are able to assign things to their rightful owner. We come to understand:
• Hurt people unfortunately hurt people.
• While some are committed to being true, con artists are perfecting their con.
• Predators, in all forms, operate out of their own dysfunction and discord.
• And, the list of profound awareness goes on.

Our healing doesn’t absolve perpetrators of their harmful behavior nor diminishes the magnitude of what has transpired and in some cases, continues to take place.

Healing allows us to ‘return to sender’ the burdens (blames, faults..etc.) that aren’t ours to carry, tend to our wounds, fill our cups and pour into ourselves and all that we hold dear. Flourish anew.

We are able to tell the story accurately. We call the predator a predator, we see the con artists for the cons that they are and hold ourselves accountable for the times when we were the hurt person who hurt others.

There is power in the words we utter and think.

May we take the time to heal, trust our process, return burdens to their rightful owners, set new boundaries and speak words that liberate us from the actions and experiences that once bound us.”

Peace.
