The Root By A.I.R. Charmaine Gumbs
Challenges are what makes life so interesting. Overcoming them is what makes life so inspiring. The mind is a battlefield where your past from your inner child is the rooted ammunition. Our childhood and our upbringing tell you a lot about a person. If we do not address our inner child trauma and scars, we tend to take them with us in every area of our life and relationships. It festers like a sore consuming you even more till it ruins your present and damages your future.
We cannot escape the life pain and challenges, but we can endure it where we remove the root of the past from your mind and your present will be safe for the future to manifest without fear. See if the past is the root of the tree and the trunk is the present and the leaves are the future. If the roots, being the past are not healthy that tree is sure to die being the future.
To heal that inner child of their trauma and pain that we carry in our adult life we need to get to the rooted issue of the tree, the past. If we do not heal from the past, we tend to have difficulty in the present that the future is difficult to see and sometimes nonexistence.
Do not let the past define or change you for the worse instead let it be what builds you stronger through endurance and healing. Let your life altering events be the map to guide you through your defining moments where healing, self discovery, self love, compassion, and empathy for yourself where you free yourself from the past.
