[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 676558, member: 17461"] The tapes will help you heal, Leafy. They are a way you are telling yourself what they did to you. Listen to them. Hold yourself with compassion; you were only a little girl. You were alone. Now you are grown up. Counter the tapes, Leafy. Think of someone pouring that poison into the ears of a child. Think of the child, coming free. Listen to the tapes Leafy, if you can catch the words in them. When you do, choose to hold yourself with compassion. For me, this was surprisingly hard to do. That is how we find the hurt, so we can address and heal it. That was the meaning in the poetry, Leafy. The chessboard is universally black. There is no map. What matters is how we go forward. We have everything we need already. Pretty much, what we are learning here is to listen sincerely. Sometimes, there is nothing to be done but to listen, sincerely. Those tapes are part of you, Leafy. Nothing about you belongs in the trash. If it is in the trash, it is still working to heal you. We fight against our own healing very hard because we were, so many of us, hurt into believing things that aren't real or true, and that are harmful to us. So, we defend against them. We were hurt into that, Leafy. Our normal impulse is healthy balanced beautiful growth. We need to listen, and allow healing. There is nothing else we need to do. Whatever we need to heal will come. Watch and see. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
