I always thought I didn't deserve to have the "blocks" I do in my life, because I didn't have the things that so many other went through. I was never abused. I had a family that loved me.  However I did see some shit.  But I never let my self validate that that actually did leave lasting scars, and that they are valid challenges to work through and yes they were traumatic. 

 I hope no matter what your past hurts are that you face them and accept them as being valid. When we can say yes that is a valid reason to be how I am, only then can we go in and heal it. If we keep saying it's not a valid reason, then there is no way we can get out of our own way. 

Cheers and love you to the moon and back. Kristin XOXO
