“ The victimization of children is nowhere forbidden, what is forbidden is to write about it. ”
Experience has taught us that we have only one enduring weapon in our struggle against mental illness: the emotional discovery and emotional acceptance of the truth in the individual and unique history of our childhood.
~ Alice Miller
Without realizing that the past is constantly determining their present actions, they avoid learning anything about their history. They continue to live in their repressed childhood situation, ignoring the fact that is no longer exists, continuing to fear and avoid dangers that, although once real, have not been real for a long time.
For the human soul is virtually indestructible, and its ability to rise from the ashes remains as long as the body draws breath.
I was not out to paint beautiful pictures, even painting good pictures was not important to me. I wanted only to help the truth burst forth.
