I am learning these things, struggling still, but it will eventually become the only way in which I choose life. :)Journey of a Genie in a Bottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14104548700614873783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579640655902368791.post-7287294548101535522011-04-13T08:06:02.878-04:002011-04-13T08:06:02.878-04:00Carla!

Its great to see you sharing the light that you've found! <br /><br />You said: "Now, as a child we WERE POWERLESS, we were at the mercy of those who were abusing us, but that feeling of being a powerless child that we carried into our adult lives is the lie."<br /><br />Yes! This awareness has been the core of my own healing journey and the place where I found that truth that set me free! I feel so fortunate to be a part of the online community that is spreading the word that this is the key to freedom!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14912871715015255464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579640655902368791.post-13896775727622619882011-04-13T05:54:39.007-04:002011-04-13T05:54:39.007-04:00Carla, thank you so much for your comment!

That step back is so easy to do, so frustrating, and yet I think necessary at times in order to make us always aware of our need to reinforce what we are learning. That would be my optimistic take on it! lol<br /><br />Thank you for your encouragement! <br />CarlaJourney of a Genie in a Bottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14104548700614873783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579640655902368791.post-5964437795968743642011-04-13T00:25:30.453-04:002011-04-13T00:25:30.453-04:00What a beautiful blog.

I was struggling in some of the old lies today and your words have encouraged me, tweaked my perspective and cheered me on in my "truth working". Thank you Carla!

So much appreciated. I am still learning every single day what that statement means, "Live our lives in Freedom" I mean what it is REALLY going to mean to me from here on out. Because you are so right, if we have never known it, it's hard to see it and reach for it. But I am reaching for it!<br /><br />Carla :)Journey of a Genie in a Bottlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14104548700614873783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579640655902368791.post-8553353465722920772011-04-12T19:26:30.656-04:002011-04-12T19:26:30.656-04:00"Live our lives in freedom" What a power..."Live our lives in freedom" What a powerful statement and one that is so hard to accept when you've never known that it could actually be true. <br /><br />Thank you for this amazing post Carla!Mystic_Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00099062213372011260noreply@blogger.com
