Truely?

Encourage

Can we actually bear to embrace the truth

Of things that hurt and wounded

Flawing the outgrowth of a person

Trapping their soul

Like abird in a cage

With wings and heart fastly beating

And breath almost swallowed with pain

Can we deny that the cage was locked

Exit denied

And that the soul then had to wither those muscles

That should have grown strong for flight

Do we blame them

For not being strong enough to fly?

Can we open the door of the cage?

Can we find the hidden or buried key?

Can we recognise that it may take time

And much encouragement

For strength to return?

And if we have not suffered this imprisonment

Can we know how it truely felt

To feel so enslaved?

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.

    1. I was really inspired last week to read of a person with DID who basically had her reality challenged by a commenter… did that really happen to you? It shocked me and prompted me to write this. My therapist told me this week that a lot of therapists wont even validate separate personalities existing as a result of Dissociation. Its so sad and unbelievable to me. Why do we keep doubting victims of abuse?

      2. I related to it.. I dont experience alters but the internalised voice is at times like another personality that wishes me harm..so I have great empathy for anyone in that awful situation and I will fight to raise awareness 💖

  4. I’ve slowly been coming back from the past week. A horrible week, like too many before this one.

    It took me down. I was in such a dark place, so I wrote. Because writing is the thing I know, the thing that brings me back. But man, its hard to fight sometimes.

    The dark is such a horrible tease.

    Thank you for this.

      1. It was the saturation of horrible news, ceaseless. It just gets to a point with me where I have to get busy doing something. And I go almost manic, in the attempt to keep my mind busy. And if I spend any ‘down time’, it takes me to a dark place.
        My trigger is helplessness. If I feel helpless, it’s like being buried alive. Horrible imagery, I know, but it’s how I feel.

        I’m glad I have this place to come to.

        Peace and hugs,

        Marc

      2. Helplessness can feel overpowering and Mars planet of action was moving into a square with Neptune. I could hardly get out of bed yestereday but as soon as the aspect hit exact degrees I felt some pressure lift..
        Someone also apparently spoke about trying to take her life on line here. I just read that post of a follower who was concerned. So you are not alone. If you ever are too too low please email me. deborahallin@hotmail.com. ❤

      3. Thank you so much Deborah!
        I was just commenting recently about how posting on this horrible event actually helped because of all the connections that I made in doing so.
        To feel connected, it’s something I denied needing for a very long time. To my detriment.
        Thank you so much.

      6. Yes, I understand… its so serious in America.. why has no president been able to fight the gun lobby.. I know it goes deeper than this, far far deeper but its so devestatingly sad. I am sure as an empath you felt it all. But we must keep choosing love and light not darkness. We just must.

      7. I have no confidence in any President or government as far as this is concerned. I think this is something that needs to be answered locally. There are so many kids who feel completely isolated. The perpetrators of most of these school shootings simply lost hope. They lost hope to such an extent that their heinous actions somehow seemed an appropriate response. We have to change it from that level. We have to make every single child realize that they count. Or continue to suffer the consequences.
        A human response is needed here. Getting tough? It hasn’t worked. It won’t work.

      8. Yes. I dont know much about the history of the boy who undertook the attacks must he must have been filled with complex emotions and feelings that were too much to bear so he acted them out. We need high level advocates… and greater awareness. Could you write a post on it? Use the negative to bring a positive about?

      9. I can try.
        Part of me feels as if readers might think I am sympathetic of the shooter and as such, am being disrespectful of the victims.
        The truth of the matter is, I think human beings are human beings.
        I’ll try this though. I might send you a draft when I get my head wrapped around it.

      10. Yes, I understand. But every human being has a wound and some have very very deep wounds and are preyed upon by darkness, so all reactions would be understandable. I have got in trouble a lot for showing empathy to perpetrators. Do only what feels right to you.
