Rediscovering Who We Are...for Those Who Need It

Posted on 10/03/08, 04:55 pm

Nadya and I want to embark on our journey of self-rediscovery Together [warm smile] and welcome All Sisters who want to join us. I want to take the next step in journey by sharing my very first Positive Self-affirmation. If anyone wants to add one for themselves, Please Do.

~ I Loved My Mother Deeply. ~

If anyone (or everyone!) wants to use that as their own Positive Self-affirmation, feel free.

  I miss myself, but I am a new person now. As the person I was is gone. I would like to rediscover myself. In my new life. Just don't know where or how to start. Here is good, hope this thread continues and we all get something from it.

  How about your first affirmation being something like:
  
  ~ I am a New Person. ~ OR ~ Here is Good. ~ OR EVEN ~ HUGS ~
  
  Nat, I realize I don't 'know' you, but you sound so amazing. Truly.

  The worst thing that could have happened has already happened.
  
  (How's that?)
  
  I miss myself too. A lot.

  nonplussed, that's really a good one. Honestly, if you look at Life that way, things can only look up. So, that's quite positive. Just put a smiley face at the end instead of a period. [starts laughing] You don't Have to! I'm just being a bit silly.

  I am my mother's daughter - Steer clear!
  (that's for my family to discover)

  I loved my mother with my whole being. I have no idea who I am anymore and how to go on and be the kind of role model for my kids that my mother was for me.
  So I guess I would say: I loved my mother with my whole being.
  I will find myself again.
  I will be the role model for my children my mother was.
  Is this how it works?? Sharon

  "My heart has been through hell, It's on it's way back to me!"
  
  Amen ;-)

For any daughter who has lost their mother, whether through Death (if it's been one day ago or 40 years ago) or Abandonment, (i.e.-drug abuse, mental illness, physical or emotional abuse, etc.) and is working through the grief process. This group provides unconditional support and understanding from women who have also lost their Moms and who truly care.
