I normally write more blogs then I’ve written of late. I could blame it on the summer sun, vacations and such, but that’s just not the case. I’ve been recuperating, healing and rediscovering my peace. I’ve been a victim of domestic violence and now I am set on becoming a survivor.
Domestic violence happens in more places then you could imagine. It happens to women in all walks of life. You probably know someone who has suffered from abuse. She’s hard to recognize because she looks just like every woman out there. Maybe she’s the woman you see shopping at the supermarket, sitting at the PTA, working out with you at the gym or the woman who helps you with your makeup or shapes your eyebrows. It’s time I reclaim my dignity and once again I find inner peace and pleasure in my beauty products.
Beauty products certainly can’t help me escape my abuser, but they have been incredibly helpful in letting me find my escape, my place of comfort, my serenity. I’ll tell you about them. The first thing is my sense of smell. Scent….it’s so important. I need to breathe in peace and tranquility. I need to feel the calm in my mind. My sense of calm has been so disrupted. I need to get to a calmer place. And, the scent that’s done it for me is June Jacobs Serenity Candle.
So…there are lots of candles and scents out there. What’s so special about this one? First of all, June Jacobs is a terrific lady. I really like her; she herself is calming and soothing. So, I felt compelled to try one of her candles. She’s calls it serenity, but it’s actually more like awakening to me. Refreshing, like opening a window with a fresh breeze off the ocean just waiting to waif through and refresh the stale air. Wonderful……
A good beginning….. to healing. I must continue to find ways to feel better. I will let my passion for what’s beautiful guide me to finding my way. I will survive.
