~As my last post shows, I can be all 'adult' and 'competent' about handling these issues. But there is a price to be paid. There are significant parts of me that are not adult and these things terrorize and wound them. Those parts were born out of times when I had not yet become an actual adult, times when I was terrorized and wounded and was helpless and they bear the marks of that birth, carry that pain in their core.
Once all the 'adult business' has been attended to and I sit with myself in the quiet, then their fear and sadness comes to the surface. All I can do is let it flow outward and feel it. I do my best to comfort those parts of me, but there is only so much that I can do. My Damage is deep and profound....
