To my dear wounded child,
In the past I have doubted you, and allowed you to feel untrue. I am sorry. In the past I have judged you, and allowed you to feel inadequate and ashamed. I am sorry. In the past I have ignored you, and allowed you to feel powerless, I am sorry. My fear, doubt and inaction have led to much suffering. I am sorry.
You have a right to exist. Your feelings are valid. You have nothing to be ashamed of. You do not need to be other than you are.
I promise to listen to you with love and understanding. I ask you to be kind and allow yourself to forgive me. I ask you to be brave and allow yourself to trust me. I ask you to be strong and allow us to heal.
Love,
Jessica
