You are NEVER alone!
In the sometimes strange unit of existence called humanity, people can be a challenge to understand. While it is evident that live experiences "change" people (sometimes for the better- but sometimes for the worst)..... the old adage "Can't we all just get along" reigns supreme.
Clearly, we are driven by different ideals, religion, spirituality and the such - but the common ground is we are human. Humans make mistakes. Humans sometimes make bad choices. Humans cry. Humans laugh and humans have the ability to forgive and to be forgiven. People that know me well know that I seek a "common ground". It is ok to disagree - without - being disagreeable. The lens of my mental or emotional camera may be different but maybe we can teach one another to "see things" differently. Just take a look.
Through "Deborah's Freedom" and the communication I am blessed to exchange with people that trust me enough to have dialogue with me offline - I have learned so much. We are all the same - yet different at the same time. The threshold from which "Deborah's Freedom" was birth was my need to release my m ind of the period I suffered as a victim of domestic abuse. Let me be clear, as painful as that time in my life was - it is my past. It is a reference point. It was a painful learning experience. It was a lesson. Through this pain - and other life challenges, I have cried, I have laughed but I have learned.
I have learned to not take life for granted. I have learned not to judge people - what you see is not what you get. It is EASY to absorb pain - pocket it away in the inner recesses of your mind - and no one will ever know anything about it. How do I know - I did it. I did it well. In this new journey of transparency, I have learned stories too painful to recite as they were shared in confidence that would "blow your mind". Some people are a walking "time bomb" and one more trigger event would make them explode.
There are medical professionals well equipped to address the human needs both mentally and physically. There is no curse assigned to anyone for seeking help. If you need help - get it.
Trying to be STRONG and fit in the status quo is not worth it if your insides are eating at you day and night. There is incredible freedom in just letting some stuff go.
Ask me how I know.
Far be it from me to end this dialogue for today without your invitation to the Cross. There is room at the Cross for you. I am not necessarily talking about church affiliation as much as I am talking about a changed heart. Against popular opinion, there ARE a lot of GOOD churches that assemble together for the sole purpose of drawing sinners to repentance. There are still churches and assemblies of worship that still hold up the Blood Stained Banner for the Lord. There is still integrity in the pulpit. There has abeen a "scattering of the sheep" over the years and the prominent church on the corner - or the one your grand-mother invited you to has a "different face" in the community. The division is painful to see BUT - if you focus on God... I promise that GOD will not fail you.
