The Dark Places


Sadly, not all of us were surrounded with safe, kind, and healthy adults. Sadly not all of us lived in safe places where we could learn things in a safe way.


Some of the grownups in our lives hurt us. They taught us things about safety and love and life that were confusing. They said mean thing to us and looked at us with anger. Our Protector Spirits needed to try even harder to figure out ways to keep us safe and loved.
