What if you could look at your life circumstances and no matter what happened to you, you could see how God can bring beauty out of it? In my journey of self love and self acceptance, I have learned that if I shift my perspective, I can see the beauty within art, and more importantly, within me. I wish the same for you.
Blessing
There are so many blessings that I am thankful for. Layers of blessings. People and our environment. Layers and Layers.
If You Tend To A Flower
The quote from Matshona Dhliwayo is "If you tend to a flower, it will bloom no matter how many weeds surround it." When we work on our healing after trauma, we can create a life we love. Even if we have "weeds" around, we can still bloom. And the best healing comes when we get transplanted to a healthier soil/environment so we can utilize the resources that a healthier environment provides us.
Inner Wounds
For a long time i felt like I was bleeding inside. No one could see how much wounding I felt. Thankfully, most of those have healed. I still have a little bit here and there but nothing like this anymore.
Where The Flowers Bloom There IS Hope
Lady Bird Johnson said that "where flowers bloom so does hope." As sexual abuse survivors, we have to choose to have hope when we are healing. Our habitual thoughts may be those of hopelessness and despair but we can CHOOSE not to make agreement with those thoughts and see all the flowers and choose hope.
There Are Always Flowers For Those Who Want To see Them
There are always flowers for those who want to see them. Even when we have trauma, we can still look for beauty in our life. Beauty in the world around us.
