I want to circle back to Eckhart Tolle’s words quoted at the beginning of this website.
A victim identity is the belief that the past is more powerful than the present, which is the opposite of the truth.
Your choices in the present can overcome anything that happened in the past. Know this!
It is the belief that other people and what they did to you are responsible for who you are now, for your emotional pain or your inability to be your true self.
The perpetrators of your past victimized you once. It’s up to you whether you remain their victim. They no longer have the power to ruin your life.
The truth is that the only power there is, is contained within this moment: It is the power of your presence.
You have the power to heal. It is an innate capacity you possess as a human being.
Once you know that, you also realize that you are responsible for your inner space now--nobody else is--and that the past cannot prevail against the power of the Now.
Claim your responsibility for your inner space. It’s a choice. This book gives you many tools to help you take responsibility for your life.
Please understand this: Only you can do this healing. You can get lots of support, but it’s up to you. It’s your choice. Take that leap of faith to begin the journey.
You are worth it! I believe in you.
