		<description>Hi Lisa,

Thank you...  I like the image of holding the little girl, that&#039;s a level of caring and visualisation that I&#039;d like to achieve.

Take care,
CG</description>

		<description>That was beautiful. A memory came through yesterday and I just imagined holding the little girl and telling her she was safe, etc., but writing it out this way is more like a contract. What a wonderful way to let them know you care and appreciate them.

		<description>Thank you Ones...

This was published here to show that commitment to the young ones.  They&#039;re incredibly hurt, confused and lost.  We&#039;re working on getting better communication happening, but it&#039;s a slow process that can only occur when we&#039;ve established trust.

Take care,
CG</description>

		<description>Yeah, sometime it seem like they don&#039;t hear or understand. But I think w/time and continued commitment to them, they will be helped.
Its good you straight up honest w/them, thats real important.
Try and be consistant w/them. Listen.
I think its good you posted this, cuz it shows commitment to the kids, and also cuz it&#039;ll help others out there in cyberspace to learn too.
Say hi to them kids for me. Its ok if they shy.
Good work.

		<description>Hi LostShadowChild,

Thank you :)

M thought it was important to say, and say on the public blog rather than our private one... Hopefully we&#039;ll see the benefit of this commitment soon...

Take care (((warm safe hugs)))

		<description>Hi Paul,

M had hoped that this would start the process of rebuilding some relationships with a couple of the young ones, but they&#039;ve been hurt so much that there is huge resistance to opening up in any way.  We&#039;re all very much like a wounded cat at the moment, hissing and spitting at any hand moving towards us.  As a group, we need to learn when to ask for help...  We failed at this over the weekend, so we need to start modeling the behaviours we&#039;re asking the young ones to exhibit as well.

Take care,
CG</description>

		<description>This is such an honest, open and impressive letter. This letter is in every regard extremely important and at the same time very courageous. 
M. you have done a great job, as you wrote it. I really hope, that young one will say soon, what she needs. 
Thinking of you...
Take care and ((()))</description>

		<description>You&#039;re welcome CG. I can imagine how hard this was to write, and I think I understand the anxieties about keeping it up. One thing I&#039;m learning is that my blog is for me, and no one else. If it benefits me to write stuff, to disclose stuff, to share stuff, then so be it. The anxieties about putting tuff stuff up have lessened a bit for me over time. I hope they will for you, too.
