"I reached adulthood feeling angry, damaged and confused"
Awaken The Species

"I reached adulthood feeling angry, damaged and confused"

As a child I felt that much was expected of me and I often felt eager to please my parents. Because they of were both estranged from their families and carried deep inner wounds, the guidance, affirmation and security I craved wasn't there. Instead, I often bore the brunt of their anger and frustration. 
I reached adulthood feeling angry, damaged and confused about where to go for higher guidance. 
I tried on philosophies and even joined a couple of religions in search of a complete message without threats or biases. I knew from a place deep within that my true self could be made whole again and capable of loving. 
I read the Conversations With God series when it was first published. While the messages resonated, I wasn't confident in myself enough to have the courage to trust that I could actually live them and with authenticity. 
Taking the course reawakened my first encounters with these messages. I realized the processes of maturity and experiences were preparations for me to experience them again at a higher and clearer perspective.
