"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you." -Maya Angelou

As you write and bring light to your story, a deeper self-awareness emerges. You begin to connect the dots in so many ways. Why do you think the way you do? Why do you have so many of the feelings you experience? Why do you behave in certain ways? Why are you staying in unfulfilling relationships? Why do you allow people to treat you in ways you don't like? Everything starts making sense. You will see your life with more clarity than ever before.

"If we could read the secret history of our enemies, we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility."
- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

​

"Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathic witness." 

- PETER A. LEVINE

"Beneath the surface of the protective parts of trauma survivors there exists an undamaged essence, a Self that is confident, curious, calm, a Self that has been sheltered from destruction by the various protectors that have emerged in their efforts to ensure survival. Once those protectors trust that it is safe to separate, the Self will spontaneously emerge, and the parts can be enlisted in the healing process." - Bessel A. Van Der Kolk
