The Moment That Still Hurts!

Have you ever wondered why a small moment can suddenly hurt so much? In such moments It’s not the adult whose chest tightens —it’s the child within,still remembering what it was like to be unprotected. There’s a part of us that never really grows old — a part that still feels deeply: joy, fear, shame, wonder. We call it the inner child. For me, the idea of inner child protection began the moment I realized that healing isn’t only about moving on — it’s about learning how to stay with what was once left alone. We left that part not by choice, but to survive, to be accepted, to keep going in a world that couldn’t hold what we were feeling. And maybe real healing begins here — not in becoming someone new, but in coming back home… to the one who was waiting all along.
