My Inner Child Heals
through grieving
Today I will accept my inner child's sadness.
Occasional bouts of melancholy are my inner child's way of
healing through grieving. I will not fear it when it comes;
I may cry, for tears often cleanse the soul of it's residue
of sadness.
As an adult child, I may always feel a lingering depression.
There may always be a "hole" inside me that nothing can quite
fill. Maturity means coming to accept life on it's own terms,
even if that entails learning to live with a sense of
loss....without concluding that there's something "wrong"
with me.
The child within me was told that sadness was unacceptable.
Today I will allow her the freedom to feel sad.
As she grieves, I will love and comfort her. Despite the
losses of yesterday, this day glistens before me with all the
rich hues of hope and promise.
Today I will be free to cry...
