The Types of Childhood Traumas

You've probably heard of the 5 main issues you live as a child, that transfers into adulthood. Rejection, abandonment, Treason, humiliation and injustice.

They are all as painful as the other. They can affect your daily life, until you face them on.  They can even linger long after you think you’ve gotten over them.  They have a way of resurfacing when a life changing event happens in your life. 

Someday you might even think you are over it and you've worked through the issue or issues... But a situation can arise at anytime and make the deep wounds open back up to make you relive the good, the bad and the ugly.

We are not immune to the past and our childhood issues. They are an integral part of us, for our whole lifetime.  We are just a result of them. Even if you have worked on them and think you are over them.

Think of a tree trunk being struck by a strong person with its axe, in its core. The opening it makes... its like reliving it all over again. The strength it takes to heal it all over again is enormous but not impossible.

You have to be able to rely on others to lend a hand, take it one day at a time and allow the bad and the good to come in. Respect that not everyday is going to be beautiful and gentle on you. That you have to live through the emotions that will flow through you.   It simply means you're alive and putting yourself out there. Making a mark on your own life and others. Its about relearning to be yourself, one day at a time. Accepting what was and what it has created by reopening the wound. Realizing you have more power to leave it behind and that those situations are no longer who you are today. They have forged a part of you, but if you are able to find the beauty in it and rise above it, beauty will emerge, just like the lotus flower.  

Being rejected, Being abandoned, Living injustices, Living treason, betrayal and humiliation are moments that can mark a person for a very long time, even for a whole  lifetime. It doesn't mean it has to define who you are for that same amount of time. It's only a bump in the road to allow you to become the best version of yourself.

You are wonderful! Live that strong, powerful life that you want to carve for yourself.

BE!
