Lemonade from the Abuse Lemon Tree - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites
Did you grow up in a lemon grove?
Were you mistreated as a child? Maybe you had an abusive parent or uncle or grandparent. Maybe there was an abuser in your church family. There are so many ways that grown-ups mistreat children, sometimes meaning to and sometimes not, that it’s a miracle so many of us manage to become functional adults.
My goal for you is to be more than just functional – you deserve a wagalicious life, where you take those lemons that were hurled at you and make lemonade.
Start by giving yourself credit for surviving and making it this far, and then focus on who you are now, not where you’ve been.
- Give yourself credit for the healthy relationships in your life.
- Give yourself credit for taking care of yourself now.
- Give yourself credit for the kindness that still lives in your heart.
You have become a person who sees abuse, recognizes abusers, and comes to the aid of those who need it. You have a lot to be proud of in your life – you are the lemonade and you’re becoming sweeter by the day.
