Traumatic Experiences Community Daily Check-in Thursday 21st September 2017
Good morning to you all!
Seems like we can well continue on from yesterday.. and SaltyDog's great post. Here are some random selections from what was said. From Avary. ."..we are all so different.But that doesn't matter -we love and support each other in some way." And SensitiveShade saying: "So thank you everyone for being here and part of this fam,each one of you present something beautiful in here, each one of you have something special." And then Mellio with pictorial expressiveness, and KatieMoon in response. "That totally makes me giggle out loud." And Raine saying: "You have courage and strength in abundance, and my life is richer from knowing you all." From Debs: "Every person within this community adds to the network of support it provides- whether members or listeners,you all matter, you all make a diifference."
This is simply a small part of what was said as you will know, and all the parts add up to the whole which is a community.And each one of us is a part of this community.We are the Trauma Community and this is the element that binds us together. But community also gives us a sense of belonging, of connectedness,and saves us from isolation and alienation. Community is rich in respources and collectively we can support each other. As we find, our community is a safe place, a place to call home. A place where there is love and healing,where we can laugh and cry, and where we can grow with others. Let's celebrate the gift that is community!
How is your day going? What is important to you in being part of a community? In what other ways could this community provide support?and any reflections? Love to hear form you. This is your space and a safe place. x
@TheresaWilliams @Christine1980 Welcome to both of you. :)
It is kind of the 22nd now, so late to this I guess. Still, it feels like I do not fit anywhere any more. I am always going to be different and right now at least I want to be the same as everyone else. I wish that would change..
I do NOT want to leave Spain, sadly all the oldies are stronger/bigger/bossier than me so I have no choice
At least I have Saturday, Sunday and Monday in France. My brain is so confused with language as well.

Welcome! I think you're doing a great job of writing and expressing yourself. Change can be hard, very hard, but it can also be beautiful. What is something you are looking forward to with this change? Tell us about that... :) Go gently.
@TheresaWilliams @Christine1980
Hello and welcome to the trauma community. You're both very welcome.
Feel free to share as much or as little as you wish, no pressure. Just know, you can be assured of empathy and support.
It's great to have you both here :)
Feeling very sad and depressed and lonely and anxious today.
