Welcome to my blog! OMG I am so excited that you are here to start your journey. I know you’re probably thinking, who is this Pam Butterfly? Well…let me first inform you that I am NOT a licensed counselor by any stretch of the imagination! In fact, I recommend that you seek help from a licensed individual as you begin your healing journey.
Who am I? I am simply a woman who found herself between two very difficult choices after facing the demise of her own marriage:
Give up and die mentally, physically, financially, spiritually, and emotionally as a result of the divorce.
OR
Stand up, dig deep, and fight for my well-being with every weapon that God placed within my reach.
I chose the latter, but the sad fact is that many women feel too weak to even lift a finger after such trauma. I know because I was one of them. My God, my counselor, my family members, and many friends gave me the courage to rise again. As I reluctantly began my healing journey, I soon understood that I was more disconnected from myself than even I realized. There was a lot of ‘stuff’ inside of me (some of it from childhood) that needed healing, loving, and protection. After being on my path for a few short months, I realized that healing was a gift, and it was critical that I slow down and embrace the journey.
To this day, I still experience ups and downs, but the ups are beginning to outnumber the downs. What is strange is that the more I heal, the more I realize that this is a lifelong commitment to myself. That sounds scary, but trust me—when you begin to experience joy in healing, you realize that you should always endeavor to refresh and renew yourself DAILY! You are important, and by God, you are worth it!
I offer hope and extreme faith in Jesus Christ as you learn to trust the One who will never leave you nor forsake you. No two journeys are the same, but we must embrace our personal journey as we heal.
