At what age did your parents stop bandaging the wounds and start creating them?

safehalton Thank you to everyone who braved the rain for our very first SAFE Presents: A SAFE Trail in collaboration with @happyhikershamilton We began our trek at Hidden Valley Park and walked through the Royal Botanical Gardens and looped around Cherry Hill back to Hidden Valley Park. We made several mindful stops along the way including a guided meditation and forest bathing.

Connecting with nature is a powerful tool in processing trauma and improving one’s mental health.

Friday Fictioneers - Reminders of Her

He gulps his glass of whiskey.  He hates whiskey. Cupping his hands on his head and face, he weeps. What will I do now? I’m nothing without her. She promised to love me forever. Despair oozes from his boozy sweat. Her childhood trauma was a fellow bedmate during their relationship. She hates me because of what happened then.  Why? He is a man—a reminder of her brokenness, something too painful to…

old emails and new feelings

This morning, as the sun's gentle rays filtered through my curtains, I received an email from Google which stated that all inactive accounts unused for over two years would be deleted. A mundane announcement, perhaps, but it prompted me to embark on an emotional journey back in time. With a mixture of hesitation and curiosity, I logged into my old email account, a repository of memories frozen in the digital realm.

As I sifted through the forgotten messages, I stumbled upon the last email ever sent to that address. It was from a figure that had cast a long, haunting shadow over my life – my biological father. His words, etched in digital ink, were a painful reminder that he wanted nothing to do with me, a cruel rejection that had scarred my heart for years.

Tonight, the stillness of the evening wrapped around me like a warm blanket as I nestled beside my sleeping daughter. Though she no longer needed my presence to drift into dreamland, I found myself unwilling to relinquish the role of protector and nurturer. My heart swelled as I gazed at her innocent face, each of her gentle breaths a reminder of the preciousness of life.

In the stillness of that moment, the contrasts of my past and present seemed surreal. How could someone who had been granted the power to give life choose to inflict so much pain? My own father had been a master of that paradox – his actions and words had woven a web of suffering that took years to unravel.

Reflecting on the memories of my childhood, I recognized the gaping hole between his actions and the love I wished to shower upon my daughter. The emotional and psychological scars left by his deeds, some only revealed to me in adulthood, dwarfed any rebellious acts I had committed as a child.

I used to find myself bothered by his resentment, a resentment which stemmed from the consequences his father faced for his actions as a convicted child sex offender. A burden that he unfairly placed on my shoulders. A burden I turned over to law enforcement to help me heal. (we'll get to that on another post) But as I sit here, pouring my thoughts onto this digital canvas, the purpose of this post isn't to dissect the faults of a man who has long faded into insignificance. Instead, it is to celebrate the transformative power of love, resilience, and parenthood. I am no longer bothered. I have moved on, and true to the words he last wrote to me ending with "...have a nice life." I am, in fact, doing just that. Look at me now, thriving without him.

Rereading that heart-wrenching email today served as a catalyst, amplifying the love I feel for my daughter. In her existence, I've discovered an unyielding determination to rise above my past, to be the parent I never had. Her laughter, her dreams, her presence – they've become my daily inspiration to mend the wounds of my past and to ensure that her journey through life is bathed in unwavering support and boundless affection. Her happy existence reminds me of my refusal to let the cycle of pain continue. I'll cradle her in my arms, absorbing each of her breaths, knowing that every moment I spend with her is an investment in a brighter future – one defined by love, understanding, and unwavering commitment.

While I'll never forget the trials of my past, I'm determined to channel the pain into a force for good. I realize that life doesn't always grant us the parents we deserve. But, it can provide us with the opportunity to become the parents our children deserve.

With each cuddle, each embrace, I'm rewriting my own narrative, transforming the pain into a legacy of resilience, redemption, and unconditional love.

"Daddy Issues"

People hear that and instantly have this thought of "Oh no this girl has issues" They think they know me.

The think it's as "easy" or as "Bad" as not having a father figure or seeking a father figure.

But its more, I crave the love, care and affection from a father. But not the sick and twisted "Love" I was shown and treated to growing up.

The first sort of affection from my father was that of this unrelenting rage, It was like any time he would see me this beast would take shape, this beast that would hit me, call me names and belittle me.

He would check the food I ate and beat me if I ate anything when I get home from school.

To younger me that was what I thought a father was like to those they love. So when the aggression and the hate changed to this other sort of "love" I craved it.

But its wasn't "Love" It was a wolf in sheep's clothing called "Grooming" He sore me not as his own flesh and blood but as a stranger or a friend. The hits turned into touches and hugs that lasted a bit too long or hands that moved to forbidden places.

How was a girl at the age of 13 to know any different, how was I supposed to know that by no chance this was a fatherly thing, He was a predator and I was his prey.

Fast forward 14 years and I still wrestle with this inner want. I want a father, I want someone to want to care for me and protect me. I want someone that is happy to take my calls, someone who would risk their own life for my own.

"Daddy Issues" is more then someone without a father or with father issues.

To me it is the missed years and memories that I will never have with a family member that will never ever be family again.

Chapter 10: I was 3 when my schizophrenic/bi-polar dad left so to find this in my police file is a shocker - profiling me to undermine any credibility when i reported my stepfathers abuse, no compassion, no protection, no idea. This thing is like an iceberg - the deeper i go the more inept police work and negligence i find. 239 pages. Burnt this utter bollocks of a report in my barrel fire (see Velveteen video in 3 days) but who taught these cops this stuff? Time for a shake up @newzealandpolice Of interest: i still do my hair nearly EXACTLY like this. Also of interest: every single child deserves respect and protection 🤍 @nzpca #newzealandpolice #mishandled #profiling #childhoodabuse #trauma #velveteen #wherethissongcamefrom (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmDYtx2sjaJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
