Trauma Counselling

The way through is always the same

Accept myself where I cannot change
Find joy in myself where I cannot change
Experience what I cannot change, not as a roadblock, but as the inevitability of bedrock which catapults a stream into a waterfall or bends a river into a fertile oxbow
In other words: leap into the sunlight. Or feed reaching roots. Grow.
Grief isn't fuel until it can be burned in the engine of resolution
There's no peace without letting my existence change the world

If only change left fewer bruises everything would be peaceful
As it is, everything can only be ok
