I attended a monthly gathering of writers earlier today. The founder of the group refers to us as the Inklings. During our time together we share writing samples of various genres we are working on. When I read the drafts of my work some of the members share their life stories and some of the hardships they endured as a child and adults.
Other people who read my book will share their stories and say, “I never told anyone this before”. I am flattered when people allow themselves to be vulnerable with me. One of my objectives for writing the book is to invite people to share their stories with others to reduce the emotional grip their past traumas and abuse are having on their current functioning.
I recently heard a speaker say, “We (Leaders) need to go back to our origin to get right with our families”. When people share their stories with me in most cases it goes back to something that happened to them as children. The startling fact is when we don’t resolve past hurt and pain we continue to act it out as adults. This leads to conflict in the workplace, an inability to make healthy emotional connections with others, depression, anxiety, addiction, and other mental health conditions.
The good news is that thousands of people have healed from horrific life circumstances. Those who have been bold enough to share their story are Superhuman Beings. I feel blessed that I am invited to listen to their story.
Is there someone you know that may benefit from reading my book? Consider giving one to this person or let them know about my website https://superhumanbeing.net/ where they can read a free chapter, purchase a book, and sign up for my daily blog.
