Kestrel the Druid

I feel that today I was given a direction to focus my healing and shadow work. It’s all about broken trust. Both my trust that others have broke and the trust I broke of others. I am not sure where to start on this particular path. I know this is a deep seated issue. It goes back to when I was a young child and recurs often throughout my life.

My mother broke my trust many times. She would hurt me when I needed comfort. Let me down when I needed her support. When I tried as a child to be a better daughter, I was rebuffed. Finally, as an adult and mother myself, I gave up.

I know how much it hurt when my trust was broken. So, I feel especially guilty when I break the trust of someone else. I still feel guilt for things that happened decades ago. Somehow, I’ve got to find a way to heal and let go of this guilt and hurt.
