steppingstones

I created blog title steppingstones for a reason.Having a traumatic and very abusive life,due to others,in the time starting at my toddler age and up to my late 30`s,I am now in my middle 50`s.I am a true survivor.I acted out in a lot of various ways to survive the traumas that happened.I thought that way of life was normal,as thats all I knew.I put myself in intensive therapy and began to uncover the truths of what was underneath the abuse,a very long journey of exploration to the depths inside of me.My recovery is still on going,and has allowed me to move to a place of freedom from the chains that bound me.It has opened up a whole new me,with changes of behaviors,attitudes,and healthier choices in relationships,spirituality.I now have purpose,hope and a future,seeing others as significant,important people.You matter.I see that everything that happened in my life mattered.I no longer am a victim of my past,but am a survivor because of it.Nothing in my past is wasted,they are steppingstones to keep moving to the next level in my life.I know there will always be valleys to go through,mountains to climb.By taking ONE STEP AT A TIME............STEPPINGSTONES.......
