"Inner child work is essential. It's the essence
of growth as a whole person" - Cheryl Richardson
"One of the saddest
things of all is that so many adoptees and moms are afraid to take the
risk of healing which is necessary to pursue one's dreams"
"... as we lte our own
light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the
same. As are liberated from our own fear our own presence
automatically liberates others." - Nelson Mandela
"There is no failure except in no longer trying. There is no defeat except from within, no really insurmountable barrier save our own inherent weakness of purpose." Elbert Hubbard
"The bond between a mother and her child is naturally
sacred. It is
physical, psychological and spiritual. It is very resilient and very
flexible. It can stretch very far - naturally. Any artificial or
violent injury to this "stretch" constitutes a serious psychic
trauma
to both mother and child - for all eternity. This means that
children
need their mothers and mothers need their children - whether or not a
mother is married or unmarried." - Mothers On Trial, The
Battle For
Children and Custody, by Phyllis Chesler, copyright 1986, 1987
"You will not grow if you sit in a
beautiful flower garden, but you will grow if you are sick, in pain,
experience losses and if you
do not put your head in the sand, but take the pain and learn to accept
it, not as a curse or punishment but as a gift to you
with a very, very specific purpose." - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
"Only eyes washed by tears can see clearly" - Louis
Mann
"Guilt is the most useless of human emotions.. It is
worrying today about something that happened yesterday and cannot be
changed." - Anon
"Guilt is the most merciless disease of man. It
stains all the other areas of living. It darkens all skies" -
John D. MacDonald
`Not to have knowledge
of what
happened before you were born is to be condemned to live forever as a
child.' -
Cicero (c. 106-43 BC)
"There are ex-husbands and ex-wives but there are no
ex-moms,
ex-dads
or ex-children" - Anon
"The horrors of war, pale beside the loss of a mother" - Anna Freud (and the loss of a child) - JS
"Adoption Loss is the only trauma in the world where the victims are expected by the whole of society to be grateful" - The Reverend Keith C. Griffith, MBE
"Emotional sickness is avoiding reality at any cost. Emotional health is facing reality at any cost." - M. Scott Peck
"All children behave as well as they are treated" - anon
"The past isn't dead...........It isn't even past" - William Faulkner
“The only way around is through” - Robert Frost
