Depression, confusion, frustration, sadness, these feelings I’d grown to know oh so well. Here I was yet again in a dark place. Depression at it’s finest. This had become a cycle that seemed to be out of my control. I had become somewhat comfortable with a certain level of insanity. (doing the same thing and expecting a different result) I began writing beginning with my earliest memory. The pains, fears, and the pleasures searching for answers to how I got to this place yet again. I realized my voice had been trapped under my trauma and I wanted to be free. This was the birth of A Journey to Truth. What began as a healing journal seeking wholeness morphed into a step by step process of disowning the lies I’d believed about myself based on circumstances that were beyond my control. These lies caused me to behave in ways that reflected a lack of self-value and invited further trauma through strained and broken relationships. Get your blanket, coffee, and a box of chocolates or nuts and get H.O.T. (Honest, Open, and Transparent) with yourself. Identify the lies, disown them and seek the truth of God view of who you are.
