Encoded with Predator DNA

What predator ever spoke true kindness to you? Which abuser made you feel good about yourself and worthy of good treatment? None that I had. Every single abuser that has come through my life wanted to discount who I was, make me feel inferior to them, and ultimately believe I was not worthy of love.Continue reading “Encoded with Predator DNA”

Courage to Fail

Isn’t that what it takes to love? The galloping meadows of life are won through loss and failure. Which one of us ever made it to the top without failures? And, by the way, what is the top? For some, it’s a great upbringing, then college, then off to raise a family of their ownContinue reading “Courage to Fail”

A Poisoned Pill

Most pedophiles I know hide behind the cowardly spirit of religion. What a shame! The shame is that it makes most abused people hate God. God didn’t do it. God is also not hypocrite or religious. Here’s what Jesus said about religious people in Mark 7: Don’t swallow the pill of religion. It’s full ofContinue reading “A Poisoned Pill”

Courage to Catch the Contagion

Just as laughter is contagious, so is healing. I’m leaving a home I’ve lived in for 12 years. The person I was when I moved into this house is almost no longer with me. I was scared, lonely, confused and angry. I knew pieces of my story, but not all of it. I was chattingContinue reading “Courage to Catch the Contagion”

Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. Jewel: Injustice. Injustice. Injustice. When you’re waiting for a sense of justice for a crime you’ve witnessed or endured, that is a miserable kind of waiting because you don’t know what you’re waiting for. What will the outcome be? Will justice be served orContinue reading “Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder”

Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. Jewel: Waiting. Waiting. Waiting. When you are waiting for the birth of a child, the anticipation of “what you are waiting for” is the center of the experience. That’s an easier kind of waiting and the blessing gained through that waiting is tremendous. WhenContinue reading “Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder”

Bonds with Mayhem

Legally speaking, mayhem refers to the gruesome crime of deliberately causing an injury that permanently disfigures another. Deliberately causing injury. These are the people I grew up with. It’s no stretch of the imagination to understand why I then picked this same bred to create new bonds with. It’s all I knew. Oh, I was bonded withContinue reading “Bonds with Mayhem”

Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. Jewel: Yesterday I took a walk down the same street I walked when I was five. The street led to my elementary school. By the time I was five, I had seen such treachery and been through so much abuse, I questioned yesterday whyContinue reading “Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder”

Does Prince Charming Exist?

When I left the theatre, he was standing at the stage door, the handsomest man I’d ever seen. My heart missed a couple of beats. Honest, I knew the minute I laid eyes on him that this was going to be something in my life, something I’d been wanting a long, long, time. I closedContinue reading “Does Prince Charming Exist?”

Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder

I would love to hear from you! Sharing Saturday with you. Jewel: The courage God has given me to tell my stories is a gift beyond measure. On my journeys I meet so many that just cannot, or will not, confront their stories with the full, unadulterated truth. They erect a fantasy where the truthContinue reading “Jewels, Gems & Gunpowder”
