Embracing Humanity, Freedom, and Unity: A Healing Journey
Rediscovering Inner Freedom
Waters run deep when the tears subside, marking the launch of a powerful healing journey focused on self-love and emotional resilience. Choosing authenticity from within awakens inner freedom and ignites the human spirit to transcend past pain. As my inner child released its hold on suffering, I rediscovered hope and the limitless potential of the soul. This reclamation of self underscores our shared humanity and the universal right to freedom.
Healing Through Stillness and Earth Connection
Time apart from everyday noise becomes a sacred ritual of unity with nature and collective well-being. Treating the body as a sanctuary, I sit in stillness, breathing in the earth’s grounding energy and sunlight’s vibrant warmth. This earth connection sparks a spiritual awakening that restores inner peace and fuels sustainable personal growth. By centering myself in nature, I reaffirm the deep bond that unites all living beings.
Cultivating Unity and Collective Resilience
Mother Earth offers a choice: stagnation or life blooming in unity and gratitude. Every seed I water—whether planted consciously or unconsciously—blossoms into an abundance of grace and shared purpose. This symphony of healing chords resonates through communities, weaving resilience into our global fabric. Together, we stand stronger, celebrating the transformative power of united hearts and collective action.

Spoken-Word Excerpt: “Whispers in the Pew”
Soft and slowly, I tried to catch my breath as
I kneel on worn wood, head bowed,
Each plume of prayer rises like a breath of stardust.
Tears fall—silent rivers tracing the curve of my cheek.
At my side, a guardian of glass and memory,
An elephant figure made of porcelain I carried with me, whose strength holds my fragile hope.
We pray for shelter, for hands to gather our fragments,
For voices that say, “You are seen. You are safe.”
Within these vaulted walls, our whispered tears become echoes of promise.
Every child deserves a sanctuary of light,
Where pain becomes a path to purpose,
And every broken piece finds its place in the whole world.
Song: Rise Up (Beacon of Light)
Songwriter: Karen K Holsinger
“To live in balance and to be grounded is a ballet to live gracefully.”
Spoken-Word Script: “Let Us Be the Hand”
Opening lines of communication was difficult as I was unable to become gentle and reflective as I ran beneath the city lights with steel in my chest and silence in my soul.
The pain was quiet—but it screamed through my bones.
Middle of the road, I saw the moon rising and I was scared with my emotions.
I prayed at five years old for someone to save me.
I asked God, “Where are you?”
And though no answer came, I held onto one thing—my little bit of strength I had left burning inside my heart and soul, dimming down to a slow burning ember.
The kind that grows in the dark. The kind that sparks up when the wind is blown out of me. The kind that dances even when broken.
Closing my eyes, as I gazed at every star, praying, hopeful, with a solemn collective call, falling to my bare knees in prayer, hoping, praying, weeping for every child is a story yet to be written.
Let us ensure theirs begins with safety, love, and endless possibility.
Every shattered piece of a child’s heart deserves a gentle hand to gather it.
Let us be that hand. Let us unite together and create a long-lasting change for good!
For in every child we protect today, we save the promise of our tomorrow and with every cent, we together can become the positive change our world and people so desperately need.
“To leave a lasting impression on others, is a beautiful way to turn heads!”
Be Courageous ~ Be the Voice ~ Be there for all Children of the World.
Be Courageous ~ Be the Voice ~ Be there for all Children of the World.
“To do something impressive and fresh, is like living on the edge and doing backflips in heals.” Do something impressive today and give back to our children and grandchildren, as they hold the key to our future, but for now, we can become part of the masterpiece, and with every cent, we can create change!”
I ran through those river-city streets with hollow lungs and a shattered heart, each footstep echoing against the walls of my broken armor. Every blade of light under the bridge felt like a dagger twisting deeper into my soul—daggers I’d carried for so long they’d become part of me, buried beneath layer after layer of steel-cold shells. Piece by piece, my heart unraveled, falling like distant stars forgotten behind a stormy sky.
The night you found me, the air trembled between us. Your presence was more piercing than any love I’d ever known—brighter than the neon glow splashed across my face. In the thin space between us, my silhouette softened. You whispered promises that crumbled my defenses, one fragile crack at a time, until I dared to believe someone could hold my fragile heart without letting it fall.
But night always returned. As the sun dipped below the horizon, shadows leapt across my bedroom walls—twisted branches that scratched and taunted, blurring the line between nightmares and moonlit reflection. I lay trembling, unable to tell if the terror was real or a trick of silver light. I longed for safety, for a hand to guide me from that haunted place, but all I found was the hollow echo of my own ragged breath.
So I gathered my broken pieces and tucked them into a dusty jewelry box. Inside, a tiny ballerina spun an endless pirouette beneath a sliver of frozen moonlight—so delicate, so frail, yet somehow dancing. And on the windowsill, a crystal elephant caught the dawn, scattering stardust across the ceiling. Each morning, its light kissed my cheek and whispered, “Stand. Dance. You still have strength.”
At five years old, I knelt on a hard church pew, tears pooling at my knees. I begged God for a miracle—any sign that my prayers weren’t just words swallowed by stiff hymnals and silent pews. “Why am I left here alone?” I sobbed into stained-wood floors. And each Sunday ended the same way: unanswered, but with one gift I clung to—strength so fierce it became my only lifeline.
In middle school, I laced up my running shoes and fled across the track until my legs buckled beneath exhaustion. I thought the farther I ran, the more pieces of me I’d leave behind. Yet every mile only deepened my isolation—no finish line could outrun the emptiness lodged in my chest.
I hid under layers of clothing like armor, escaping into tree forts and blackberry thickets where no one could see the girl who felt invisible. Days blurred into a routine of solitude—wood piles in a shadowed corner, the hum of cicadas, sticky blackberries staining my fingers but never soothing my ache.
So here I stand in the dark, heart strewn across the night sky, falling star by wounded star. I carry my scars like constellations no one knows the names of. And still, I hope—for a hand to gather the fragments, for a voice to say, “You are seen. You are safe. You are loved.”
🌟 Every Child Is a Story Yet to Be Written
Let Us Ensure Theirs Begins with Safety, Love, and Endless Possibility
I ran beneath the river city lights with my heart locked in steel, each footstep echoing through the silence of childhood trauma. The pain I carried—deep, sharp, and buried—was more than emotional scars. It was the silent weight of neglect, the invisible wounds of emotional abuse, and the aching absence of protection.
Piece by piece, my innocence shattered—falling like fragile stars into the dark. I was a child longing for safety, for someone to notice, for someone to care.
The night you saw me, your voice cracked open my darkness. In your presence, I felt something stronger than fear—emotional safety. You didn’t just see me. You held space for me. And in that moment, I believed healing was possible.
But when the sun set, the shadows returned. Tree branches clawed at the walls like memories I couldn’t escape. My breath grew heavy. My tears came quietly. I didn’t know if the fear was real or imagined. I only knew I didn’t feel safe.
In the stillness, I gathered my broken pieces and placed them in a dusty jewelry box. Inside, a tiny ballerina spun an endless pirouette—delicate, fragile, but still dancing. Each morning, a crystal elephant on my windowsill caught the sunlight, scattering hope across the ceiling. It reminded me that resilience lives in the smallest of lights.
At five years old, I knelt in church, tears soaking the pew beneath me. I prayed for a miracle. I prayed for someone to rescue me from the pain of childhood trauma. “God, where are you?” I whispered. “Why am I not being saved?” Every Sunday came and went, but I held onto one thing: strength. It was the only blessing I could feel.
As I grew older, I ran—across track fields, through neighborhoods, into the wind. I ran to escape the loneliness, the confusion, the shame. I wore layers to hide the emotional scars. I isolated myself, not because I wanted to, but because I didn’t know how to be seen.
I found refuge in tree forts and blackberry thickets—places where no one looked, and no one asked. My world became smaller, quieter, and lonelier. But somewhere deep inside, the little girl I used to be still held onto hope.
💔 Why This Story Matters
Every child deserves more than survival. They deserve safety, emotional support, and the freedom to grow into who they are meant to be. When we ignore the signs of trauma, neglect, or emotional isolation, we risk losing the light of a child’s spirit—and with it, the future they were born to create.
Child abuse prevention, mental health support, and trauma-informed care are not luxuries. They are lifelines. They are the sacred tools we must use to protect the most vulnerable among us.
