Trauma and Shock

I have a choice. 

I can choose to be a victim or I can choose to stand strong.

When it comes to trauma, the choice can be made instantly or one can choose to not react right away, instead pulling the trauma apart and examining it.

For once, I have this opportunity presented to me.

Something didn't set right, something didn't sound right, something didn't feel right.

I was perplexed.  What an odd dance that is happening before me.

I remain perplexed and that is good for now.  

This time I will choose to stand strong.  This time I will Breathe and be responsible for my part in the trauma.  This time I will not be hooked into drama.  This time I will be compassionate and freeze any preconceived notions and conclusions and work with this to allow this to become something not so monstrous and scary, but something as light as a feather that blows with the wind.

It is in this process of banter where the opportunity for me to be strong presents itself.  

Forgiveness is in order and it is the strong thing to do.  The victimization is dissipating and light is there for me to become engulfed in.  I can breathe freely, I am not constricted, but the banter continues.

That is ok, I'll let it be what it is, but I now feel that light permeating all of my being.  I am NOT transported to another place and time, I am here, I am present.  This is me being strong.

The vibrations I feel now clear what energy is no longer needed.

The banter continues.

The song clears my mind. I am in awe of the power of light and how that makes me feel so clear.  

I am blessed knowing I had been given this opportunity to bring my own healing to me.

Only because I am connected.  Only because the light I speak of comes from every living thing.

Thank you.  :-)
