Healing From Abuse

I was given an exercise once in therapy to create out of clay what being fully healed would like to me. This is my creation here. I was asked to explain it when I went back to therapy. Since I had been abused in the past, I have protection on my arms, on my ankles and around my neck and on my head. No one can harm me any longer. I don't want to allow it. I have my magic triangle to protect me and my magic necklace. Having a little pink cat helps, too. Butterflies around me represent freedom and the heart represents me wanting only loving people in my life.
I have a smile on my face because most of the time I am happy when I don't continue to allow abusive people to remain in my life. I may get fooled from time to time, but I seem to awaken more fully now and let go of persons who are harmful. That is good progress for me.
