Healing Journey Quotes

“I no longer look to my abusers with any expectation– of remorse, or apology or restitution or restoration or relationship. I’m at peace, accepting that they won’t and can’t help me out of the mess they created. But, I’m the best qualified for that job anyway and I’m happy with the job I’m doing.”

“The only way I've been able to cope is to set up house in a metaphorical white room. Keep everything simple. Color is emotion; the thing that drives me to please like an insatiable addiction, and that addiction puts me in jeopardy of compromise. Compromising for the sake of pleasing makes the intellectual in me want to puke. Hating myself in any way makes me grieve, and that's something I can't afford.”

“The moon doesn’t rush... it doesn’t compare... it doesn’t apologize. It simply follows its path and shines when it’s time. There’s wisdom in that. Too often we measure our worth against timelines, comparisons, or opinions that have nothing to do with our truth. The moon reminds us that light doesn’t need validation... it only needs space to shine. So let yourself breathe... trust your timing... and honor your path. Like the moon, your light will always find a way through the night.”

“My body will never tell you what my favorite flower is Or how I want them more than only once a year It won't tell you that I love to knit But have never finished a single project It will never show you that I hate sunrises Or that every night I tell the stars goodnight before bed Or how much I love horror movies even though I always get too scared to sleep alone afterward My body will never let you know my worst memories My body will never share my deepest secrets Or ever utter my most hopeful of wishes You never seemed to understand that.”

“The damage and invisible scars of emotional abuse are very difficult to heal, because memories are imprinted on our minds and hearts and it takes time to be restored. Imprints of past traumas do not mean a person cannot change their future beliefs and behaviors. as people, we do not easily forget. However, as we heal, grieve, and let go, we become clear-minded and focused to live restore and emotionally healthy.”

“This is not the sad tale of a failed marriage, or the tragic saga of a helicopter that fell out of the sky and stole precious people away. It’s the story of how I came to be. How I was able to love and forgive and heal from the inside out to create a wild and beautiful life where I am free. The process of revisiting and reconciling has been terrifying and transformative, rage-inducing and revolutionary. Through it all, the truth has been laid bare to honor the moments where I was reborn. Once I ventured into the Elysian Fields of my own truth and power, there was no returning to a world so small that it no longer contained my expansion. This wasn’t just any journey, it was the journey, the most important one I could ever take.”

“The reason for entering the struggle is a desire for more; a taste of what life and love could be if freed from the dark memories and deep shame. No one leaves the lethargy of denial unless there is a spark of discontent that pierces the darkness of daily numbness. To live significantly less than what one was made to be is as severe a betrayal of the soul as the original abuse.”

“Love is a choice. You can choose to love or hurt but the consequences you suffer will always be based on the choice you make. No one can force you to choose between the two but the state of your heart, mind and soul will determine the one you lean toward. Always remember that with hurt you can destroy but with love you can CONQUER!”
