An Ask for Care

The hurts we carry inside, some of these our own, some generations old, live with us - in us. These tender emotional beings, formed by circumstances far out of our control want only to protect us. They carry warnings and unheard stories. We might try to distract them, numb them, silence them. We may reach moments in life where their little cries are deafening, constant, inconsolable. But an ask for care, requires care. It requires holding, embracing, sitting with and accepting. By listening to ourselves we are given the radical opportunity to know ourselves. Not who we wish ourselves to be, or think we should be, but who we truly are. 

This is the place where healing begins. 

May our wounds lead the way to the places we still have left to heal.
