🎄 XMAS 🎄

Dear Leentje,

I see you. You feel lonely, discouraged, dissapointed, anxious, distraught, powerless, desperate, unloved, unseen, confused, disgusted and ashamed. How awful, stressful and tiring! This is old pain. I am here. I take care of you. Hold my hand. You can handle whatever comes your way. You got this! I believe in you! Look for and focus on proof of safety. Nothing is going to happen. You are safe. You do not deserve punishment. Please stay. You enrich my life. You are of value the way you are. My choices – also on Christmas – are based on you needs. You are important to me. Try to be present. Your presence makes a difference in my life.

Much love,

🤶🏾🎅🏾

Would you rather live at the North Pole or in a gingerbread house?
