Forward Motion...

Thoughts set to future events....heart steady as rain in the spring...spirit willing and able to seek new adventures, new paths far and away from things past...present minded, present in each encounter until past events melt away in the heat, the sultry promise of goodness, of hope, love, grace and mercy.

We move and live and have our being; what we allow in, what springs up unheeded from the depths, we open our hearts, minds and spirits to...we let it wash in like a tidal pool and eddy, swirl, dissect, feel...until once more gentle waves sweep in to carry the pain, the sorrow, the doubts, the confusion, away...far far away...

God's plan for each one does not include the terror of abuse, the single burning actions of one person to dominate, defeat, demean and destroy. No indeed my lost ones...this is NOT your lot in life...despite the lies told to you, spoken over you and about you, they are just that....lies from the enemy himself to hold you in place for their pleasure, their joy in the suffering they see.

Oh, there is more to life than submerging in suffering, in sacrificing yourself, your psyche to save another. Can they not save themselves with one thought, one decision?

It is a wall of granite never to be brought down with love, with patience and forgiveness...one will beat their heads against that rock to no avail. They...them...that monster, that torturer and tormenter currently residing over your very being, must make that decision themselves and in my vast experience and stories told, seen, endured...they will NOT change....change to them is the anathema to life...the end of them if they even dare to delve (cowards never delve) into the black-as-night cesspool that is their heart and soul.

It is vast....a giant empty cavern filled with cries of souls they have destroyed in their lifetime...to go there is death.

They do not see that this, this would be their salvation...their door to life, to peace from the chaos that is inherent in every cell, every neuron firing in the brain besieged by horribly evil thoughts....peace from the pain that lives deep within...

Dear hearts...it is with great sorrow that I impart that information, that experience, that wisdom gained from seeing, from feeling, from grieving a ghost, a fallacy...

Love saves...us. Unfortunately, it does not save them, it only infuriates, annoys the beast within.

Grace saves...us. Again...the more grace, the more mercy you give the more they hate...why you may ask, why!? It shines a light into the dark places, illuminates their failings, their misuse of others...you can see where this would drive the beast crazy. The light of your love holds a mirror they cannot escape...but wait, they can and do, isn't that truth dear lost ones, dear survivors? By doubling down on the abuse, the gaslighting, the crass and cruel words, the lies, the betrayals until you are but a puddle of goo on the ground, reaching out a hand of supplication, a plea for help from the very one who put you there.

It is a psychological nightmare of manipulation, control and domination.

This is not for YOU!! You deserve more, better, all of it....all this life of love can offer, you are deserving of, worthy of.

I would speak hope into your life today, I would speak joy and a love so pure it burns the broken places clean.

I would tell you that life outside the bars of that cage is good, is great, is marvellous and just grows in width and breadth until you no longer remember the one you left behind with any degree of fear...until the dread, the grief is ripped apart and scattered to the four winds.

Walk tall dear treasures....you are beautifully created, unique and lovable.

Speak your truth, with grace, with dignity, but stand tall and speak with quiet determination.

Life is yours to take, to do with as you will, as you dream and plan. And it is GOOD.
