#SurvivorsMovement #Survivor Story - #FlowerTherapy #DomesticAbuse #da


Hello

Thank you for stopping by.

This week is a 4 part special blog post series, as part of a #SurvivorsMovement, it would be great if you could share below where you are reading it from, as it’s our intention to go global with this. We are really passionate about making a positive difference, in hope to inspire other fellow #da survivors. 

A message from a Survivors Circle, each flower basket represents someone who turned their brokenness into their breakthrough, we are a group of individuals at various stages of our healing journey, who have come together with one message:

‘Your broken place can become your healing place’





Our brokenness was so uncomfortable but very much needed to process the past. A common theme running through all our stories is the distinction between cause and symptoms. The cause can be traced back to our childhoods, where our inner child needs was not met. This is what makes the movement so compelling, it is shared knowledge that any trauma suffered, is unlikely just to affect the immediate family but it can live on indefinitely far beyond the time in question.

Bitterness and resentment dwell in us until we learnt to forgive. We found solitude in immersing ourselves with new information beyond our confinement.  It widen our understanding in the fallen world we became a part of. We now realised our past is no longer a life sentence or a burden, because we chose to be productive with our pain. Restarting again takes you outside of your comfort zone, it uses all the strength, courage and grit you have to walk away from all that you ever known. You also practice a major life lesson, which is your sanity is not for sale. Love yourself so much that settling doesn’t become an option. In doing so, you not only raising your own living standards but setting the blue print for future generations.

A survivor is fearless because we already know we can survive, our mantra is:

I had suffered
But I have survived
Because yesterday’s scars are today’s strength

 We have been through injustice but we refuse to bear injustice because that's not our job. 

** The purpose of a #SurvivorsMovement is to engage, encourage and elevate all to think and be beyond their circumstances **.

Highly Effective People Strives For Excellence

Hello I hope you enjoyed the last 2 special blog posts about Parentalk and Abuse. I felt it was important for me to use this platform to raise awareness on topics that could make a positive impact on future generations. This week is back to talking about life, inspiration, motivation and ideas-this post was actually inspired by a rather dysfunctional event. Every day we have many distractions, which can keep us from our destiny if we chose to be consumed by it.  Our dreams has to be bigger than our current reality to cause us not to sweat the smaller stuff and that involves letting some things or people go. The difference between effective and not-effective people is how we chose to channel it. Below is how (after the initial annoyance) I done it. Just to put this into context- the individual(s) concerns were unable to take accountability for their actions / errors, instead what I observed was a misuse of power and the slow demise of an outdated organisation. Enjoy...

A book review – Part One - Dealing with Disappointment by John Hindley

This book was a relatively easy read with the simple idea that leaves you to question: is life just one big disappointment?  In many ways it does seem so; the author delves into different areas of disappointment in our lives. I suspect most if not all are relatable to everyone. Firstly, the author says we actually should be disappointed by life, as things are not as good as they should be. We live in a frustrated and frustrating world; the frustration is because of the fallen world when sin entered humanity. We all carry this divinely inbuilt sense that the world should and could be better. The book goes on to say that on the other hand, we are sometimes too disappointed with life.  We expect satisfaction from other areas of lives to overcompensate for this.  When this satisfaction is denied, it starts an over-disappointed cycle. For example, I came across a thread where the mum wrote in and expressed disappointment in her children’s grades, which led her to ques...

A seemingly insignificant act has the potential to change the world...

I loved learning about the story of Reformation Day. The significance centres on how the Bible became accessible for everyone to read - historically the general public wasn’t allowed to read it, only priests or those considered anointed within the church were allowed to read it. The priests read the Bible in Latin, so for most people, it wasn’t even possible to read it. God’s word was entrusted into the hands of those in power, who were deemed qualified to understand it.  What the priests were teaching, was not actually in line with what the Bible said, as one monk, called Martin Luther found out. He started to read the Bible for himself out of pure frustration.  According to the teachings of the priests, believing in God seem to be just to be an endless set of rules and it left him feeling as if he could never be good enough for God. Little did he know at the time, he was about to birth a revolution that quite literally changed the world. This set him on a path of ...
