Thankful for Trauma
Every experience we have shapes us. The trauma i have experienced forced me to develop many different coping mechanisms. It’s my survival toolkit and its filled with countless ideas and formulas. I use it every day because life is a constant struggle. I fight the battle for my mind and body because its always under attack. Its up to me because nobody else can do it. Every little victory matters. When i can simply change my perspective, everything shifts. Circumstances do not matter, only state of being matters.

Thank you for posting this here. I feel the same. I think each of us is an incredible artwork that needs to have that very splash of red there and this very black line there. Not to diminish the horrible suffering life can mean at times, but it is incredibly how powerful it is to be in touch with that pain in a deep and curious and calm way. And also to at times be able to experience pure joy and contentment for being this quicky, little, insignificant splash of colour, forms and temperatures. I cheer you, @MorganB and your struggles and toolkits!! 🌿🎉🍀🥳🩵🎶
I love this, exactly the type of PMA I needed to read today. Thank you 🙏
