“Healing Your Wounded Heart from Religious Trauma"
A long time ago, when we were young, we thought about this every day. What was life about? Why were we here? And then, along came life and the scrambling began. We landed on this planet in one fell swoop. We didn’t know why at the time. We had lessons to learn apparently, and that was the beginning of our venture.
When we first entered this sphere we were made aware of a reality that we could not fathom at the time. We had to live it first, so we could taste it and see how it felt. That was the beginning of our Earth life. Wherever we were, however we had landed, that was our place and our new beginning.
So we / You, began to explore, as others were doing, those others who were ahead of you on the curve. They showed their propensities, their preferences, and ultimately, their forms of service. You had yet to figure yours out.
You had hoops to jump through before you could get there, and oh dear, one of those hoops was called Religion. Regardless of how you felt about it, it was there, in your face so to speak, and most overwhelmingly at times. You knew it was necessary because your parents were there too, and they had succumbed to this a long time ago. So as far as you could tell, this was it, this was life, and this is how it worked - apparently?
But your heart knew different! Your heart recoiled at the assaults that were being dumped on you. “Do this! Do that! Don’t think! Do as we say! You’re bad! You’re a sinner! Only We can fix you!” And the assaults continued, all through your growing years. Your parents didn’t seem to know any different, and you had no clue either, so this was it, no other choice, just follow.
Your heart was never happy about this, but you had to bury that voice, because it ran counter to what you were being exposed to. So you silenced it, not consciously of course, but it had to be tethered because what was in front of you did not match what your heart was feeling. But your feelings were already telling a different story. And more on that was yet to come.
You didn’t know it loudly yet, but your heart was already aching. If you could have heard that ‘voice’ it was probably saying: “This can’t be right; this hurts; why does this have to hurt?” It was a ‘still small voice,’ so not much attention for it yet.
But now you are an adult, and you know your heart has been aching, and you are now in the throes of a major revolution. Because your heart has been getting louder and now it is screaming: “I can’t do this anymore; it hurts; it’s been hurting all my life; And I want the Hurt to Stop!”
Yes, you heard that right. Your heart spoke loud and clear that time, and here you are looking at material that captures that sentiment. Your heart led you here. You’ve had enough. You’re not buying the garbage anymore. Your heart wants out of that life of submission to a controlling external authority, which only cares about meeting its own ends, while collecting money for it. Enough already! You are Done!
Now your Heart is speaking to you with Love and you are finally able to listen. It wants you to feel Loved, as you so deserve, as we all deserve, no exceptions. So now it’s time to take care of You. Because you deserve it! We all do! You need it! You want it! So yes, dear friend - This is Your Time!
The overall message in this writing is that Healing the Heart takes us Home to our True Selves. After All - Home is Where the Heart is.
