This morning we will look at Morning Reflection, Positive Reinforcement, Self-Care, Coping Mechanisms, and Meditation for the Day. Join me for a walk to healing, to wholeness, to learning how to care for ourselves. I am a survivor of child abuse, child sexual abuse, neglect and did not learn how to care for myself, how to cope, or how to change the learned toxic behaviours I was taught while growing up abused from birth. I had to begin learning all of these very important pieces to living a healthy lifestyle after I began my healing journey. I have been on my healing journey since May 22, 2007 and there are many times that I forget to do the things I need to do to self-care, nurture, and cope on a daily basis. Join me for a quick chat in the morning as I share with you what I'm using and working on for my own healing journey. What works for me, may not work for you, but I will share resources and information that you can take a look at and see if any of the information might be useful for you. Whatever you do, do NOT GIVE UP! Keep reaching out, keep looking for that help, that hope and stay alive! Win this fight with me! Walk with me toward complete and total restoration.

Child of Pain
Oh my child, my child of pain Let me hold you if you trust me I promise I won't leave you again Left alone in the dark these many years Bound and Gagged in so much pain those endless tears you cried all alone the door was shut, you were left on your own The torture and torment as he raped you 37 years, while I did not want to think about you I had to split, my child of pain as I knew I could not live with that kind of pain Your wounded body, raped and torn Your wounded soul, Your life he stole My wounded body, did finally heal No children would I have from the ordeal My wounded mind, raped everyday As I knew the truth about my child of pain Let me untie you, set you free I will sit here on the bed and keep you company One day we will truly heal, learn to love again Let me help you precious girl We can hold each other Soothe away the pain Together we will take back our body We will take back our virginity We will take back our power He cannot hurt us anymore We have purged and cleansed ourselves From his evil deeds We are free my precious to love ourselves No longer do we live in shame No longer will we have to endure this pain It is over my precious child I promise I will never leave you again Laurie Ann Smith Copyright 2011 This picture is a depiction of one of the beatings I was forced to endure at the hands of my mother. Both of my parents abused me as well as my brother who was 13 years older than me and sexually abused me from 8 to 9 years old. I was 10 years old when my mother beat me and then came back for "Round 2" and I detailed this in my book, "A Life of Death: The Redemption". There is NO EXCUSE for child abuse. No one is forced to abuse a child. People abuse children for many reasons, but none of them are acceptable! Do all you can to help stop and prevent child abuse!
