What being healed would feel like.

Here's my personal perspective
on what being healed would feel like: To me, what being healed would look and feel like would be to wake up in the morning with anticipation for the day ahead. Then, I'd be able to deal with all the challenges I'd encounter with poise and effective results. I'd end the day with satisfaction and think back on the day with pride, joy and anticipation of a good night's rest to prepare for whatever might be on the horizon, tomorrow. On any given day, I'd find fulfillment in my work, which would hopefully be creative in some way. I'd be happy with the male and female human connections in my life and also relationships with plants and animals. I'd be healthy physically, aging with flexibility and growing emotionally. My environment would surround me with what I needed, in organization, beauty and abundance. I'd consume what nourishes and makes me strong and energetic, and I'd exercise to be fit and fabulous for whatever age I have the opportunity to achieve. That's what healing would look and feel like to me. My journey has brought me a long way towards my ultimate vision. I'm not totally there, but most days seem to get me a little bit closer, all the time. What would healing feel like to you? Posted on 08/11/12, 08:53 pm |

That sounds wonderful, llene. Mine would pretty much be the same. I am almost there now, it's just the little things that trigger, or the nightmares and bad memories. When I can conquer those, then I'll be all the way there.

Healed for me would be my heart not racing into tachycardia at the sound of the phone ringing when it's his ringtone (I use a special ringtone so I know it's him).
It would be my blood not boiling at the sound of his pathetic whimpering victim voice while he manipulates my daughter. It would be not having nightmares every time I am forced to see him in person for custody exchange. It would mean being able to make decisions about my social life and talking to friends without taking into account my experience with him. (Like right now I am afraid to have an intimate friendship with a man because I don't want to end up a victim again) It would mean being able to let go of resentment and anger because he doesn't deserve even that much time, emotion, and effort from me.

To me, being truly healed, is letting go of the past, living well in the present, and your future being a blank canvas in which you wake up ever morning and add the things that you want most out of live. Being healed, allows you to paint your own masterpiece. :)

I think for me, healing, or being healed, is being able to find joy in every moment, joy on waking, joy in whatever my day brings me, and joy going to bed at night.
It is NOT feeling fear. Even when I have to deal with him. Not feeling fear when things happen outside of my "plan" but instead seeing it as a possible opportunity, for something. To move ahead, to get where I want to go more quickly. It is trusting, again. In myself, my family, my friends, and the Universe. I believe it's a life-long process. I think I needed healing before I ever met him. I think there is always another layer that can be peeled away, to bring us closer to our authentic self. I'm not at the joy every moment place yet, but I believe it's possible. I'm not at the never any fear place yet, but I believe it's possible. I'm not at the trusting completely point yet but I DO trust myself, and so...I find it much easier to trust others, and to weed out the ones that are not trustworthy. When I think of him now, I think of the severely damaged human being he is, that he had to treat us all like that. The person he hurt most with his abuse, in the end, is himself.

Being healed to me would be like winning a race Ive been running all my life.
And just the feeling of breaking the ribbon at the end with my arms up and letting all the hurt and pain out. Thinking "I finally made it to the end" All of them times I tripped, and fell. All them times I had to crawl. All them times the others would push and shove and call out names. All those times I thought that I would never make it. But I kept running and I won my place in heaven
