The trauma questions...

I show love for others by sensing and feeling how and who they are when I'm around them. I show it thru validation and talking about life on a higher level of thought, plus I try and connect them to their higher mind and soul thru my own.

I usually show love to myself by sticking to my boundaries and convictions. I show love to myself by seeking out space and quiet to recharge myself, and I often spend quiet time having talks with the mirror while looking deep into my eyes. During these talks, I am NEVER hard on myself but rather use this time to be able to imagine that I was talking to the one person who I need to be happy and loved, more than anyone else in the world.

I feel I belong in another dimension with others like myself. I have close friends (brothers and sisters) and we all share the same feelings and energy. They are all introverts too, and we have a sense of tremendous love and trust amoung ourselves as a group.

The last risk I took (well two at the moment), is (are) re-entering my relationship of 2 yrs with my boyfriend after a 3 month separation, and I am exploring a new career.

I show trust in others thru an unspoken means, plus I make it obvious that I am a safe and trustworthy person to them by honoring their boundaries and vibes.

I show trust in myself by an inescapable quest for higher awareness in myself and in this world. I show trust for myself by honoring my intuition and feelings about things.
