Howdy, I am SBJ.
This is a collection of poetry and art from my life’s journey through recovery from childhood trauma and various abuses. My parents all suffered from on kind of ism or another and passed those on.
As I have shared my journey with fellow travels, a few have asked me make my writing available to them. So that’s what blog is for, sharing my recovery in words with you. May it be helpful for you to know you are not alone in your sufferings, that others have had similar journeys dealing with childhood trauma, abandonments and various abuses.
I am grateful for an English teacher who introduced me to the book: “Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance.” That book started me on a long road of discovering myself, therapy and 12-step programs. It has been a long road through decades.
May you be happy. May you be peaceful. May you be healthy. May you live with ease.
