Perhaps You Shouldn’t Of Had to Be So Strong In th Perhaps You Shouldn’t Of Had to Be So Strong In the First Place {Prayers Of A Trauma Survivor}
. 
Perhaps all the ways you've learned to adapt to trauma are not your defect, but instead your brilliance. Because there is no shame in surviving; God designed us to survive.
.
May the time come when you can set down all those survival strategies so you can actually live.
.
May you have what you need to keep your eyes out for the ways the Divine is already with you; for the Goodness that can't help but find you; for the ways you are already loved.
.
And until you can live into those truths, I'm honoring that tender space of already-but-not-yet healing with you; where perhaps you're grateful that you survived & sad that you had to.
.
Sending love.❤️‍🩹
{As always, take what you need}

Edited to add: In the final slide, it should say “perhaps you’re grateful that you survived” not “for what you survived”

Like many of you who’ve generously shared your sto Like many of you who’ve generously shared your story with me through the years, I’ve walked this brutal path of living through a life-altering smear campaign, too.

So if it feels like a resource, this is for you:❤️‍🩹
A Lament for a Smear Campaign 
.
(And other types of narcissistic abuse)
.
For the ways we have been slandered for telling the truth, 
.
We grieve. 
.
For the ways that reality has been contorted so we can no longer recognize it, 
.
We cry out. 
.
For the ways relationships were weaponized as part of the harm, 
.
We lament. 
.
For the ways those causing harm are celebrated, 
.
We dissent. 
.
For the bodies that were made to carry shame they do not own, 
.
We honor. 
.
For the ways you meet us in the valley of the shadow, O God—
.
We remember. 
.
Selah.
