RESILIENCE

"There is no tree," they say,

that can grow up to the sky

without its roots having touched hell." Carl Jung.

I have been able to adapt to all the challenges that my soul chose for this life.

I've experienced traumatic deaths, abuse, harassment, physical assault, stressful financial crises, debt, infidelity, betrayal... And in each of these experiences, I was guided by the light, just like sunflowers.

I let the pain feel like hell, even because of the trauma my mind managed to block out some memories that years later I had to face and heal.

Today I continue to live and face every situation that comes my way, turning pain into learning.
