Bio

as a system  we love to paint, do graphic design , and many other crafts. writing poems  and other writings too. we find within everything season of life there both negative and postieve.  life is a journey  and healing a journey too. when one can take the awful things done to them in this life and use them for good. that a key to being alive supportive  to others 

compassion is not just for others but for ones self. we learned many time  people treat others better then they treat self

we believe at times it best to step back look and listen to the things you tell others. then do them things to self too.

we have a very big system  now we work as a team  most the time. it can be hard at times as we still can disagree with each other at times. but we learned key to any relationship is honesty and communication that clear and with end each person  boundaries 

if have questions about DID we open to them as to get rid of stigmas  one has to learn about the things one judges  too

...See more trigger warning  Life and learning new things When I was small I see now what hurt the most what hurts me the most I feel was the things said to me your not sad your happy you have it better then I did when I was young you have nothing to feel sad about your just acting up and wanting attention I heard many other things that hurt so much what is a child to think when they really being told you not matter looking back I see myself when a child just wanting love and kindness with parents not giving it much at all I seeked it so much in the wrong places little one I was wanted love and to be treated nicely but looking back I see this sited me up to be abused but as a child any attention any thing that seemed like attention was seen as love even the abuse was at times seen as love but in the wrong way I was a child I had a child brain and way of thinking within that became a twisted idea of love sadly that lasted into adult life looking back I see that also set me up to marry a man that was abusive when abuse is all you know then it easier for others to abuse you healing work brings a new understanding to what love is also brings into life a new idea how one to treat you I so glad that I was awakened to truth about love and how ones to be treated new life that brought into being I am still learning and healing too kinda not sure this counts as a poem or just writing but wanted to share this with you all

The unseen battle
Poetry / by stormieandpaws

July 6th
...See more The unseen battle Wanting to help support others fear come into play stepping away but wanting to stay within the storm within the being but everything seems to hard unsure what to do at this point to run away or to stay to give in to the fears or fight them alone within the fight within a smile on my face but that only a mask I wear trying to stay positive as that how others see me but the thoughts within be far from positive at this time I hear them who abused me and words they said so within that I am being attacked with words the your not good enough you never will be give up as in the end you know you can not do that then the one I hate the most just run away before you get rejected so the battle is within and without too but feel as if I can not really voice what really going on

...See more Roads I stand in middle of the road of life I see two roads a head one looks easy the other looks hard and not as clear a path but unsure what one to take at first but in past the easy ones turned out to be not easy at all as they started out looking great and seemed at first to be but then not long down that road it got harder and harder so is it better to take the road that looks hard or the one looks easy in the end I stepped onto the one looks hard but after some clearing the road and doing hard work I saw that I was growing learning new skills this road was harder but it also was more rewarding the hard road brought healing and well made me stronger and stronger yes it met facing thing even my own fears but as I looked beside me I saw others with me at times they supported helped me down the hard road other times I supported and helped then down the hard road each of us the journey down this hard road different but even within that we can help each other too no one a island alone that not how we met to be we all to be within a community of love and supported so anyone who feel alone and walking alone look beside you I be there and others will be there too no one needs to be alone in the journey of healing so please reach out your hand to others
