PTSD - Lifeblood of Survival

This is compassion, empathy, acceptance, support, forgiveness, commitment, and true friendship - this is "love" for another who has been broken.

For those of us who suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) whether by war or other trauma . . . this is our lifeblood of survival. ~ Kym L. Pasqualini #PTSDWarrior

Metamorphosis

We, humans, have a tendency to try to balance on the fence of life, much of the time with one foot in the past, while the other will dictate our direction in the future - one of stability, or one of recklessness. Our memories are to be honored and cherished so that we may recognize and value the future that we alone are responsible for constructing. It is up to us, to learn through our personal metamorphosis, so we can build a future that will not be a source of torture for us. The past should be recognized as a bottomless treasure chest that we fill with all those things that teach us how to be the most conscience, loving, and thoughtful human we can be, enabling us to see ahead with clarity. ~ Kym L.

Eclipse of the Heart

Echoes of yesterday haunt a shattered heart . . . the keys to the soul thrown into the night. One without hope and burdens of pain . . . catch glimpses of light just within grasp, an eclipse of the heart and release from the past ~ Kym L. Pasqualini
