Dear Ones, please be aware that past traumas can be triggered in order for you to experience different ways of dealing with them. When you begin to shift from knee-jerk reaction to conscious response, you will have proof that not only you are healing, you are finally gaining mastery over a particular theme that you wished to explore in a very intense way and eventually come to peace with. This brings your soul a great sense of satisfaction. Do you see? A past trauma may come up into your awareness, not because you are unhealed, but to provide you an opportunity to respond to it in a different and more empowered way as a mile-marker on your healing journey. ~Archangel Gabriel through Shelley Young
