Autonomy and Authority
We come into this world with two Possessions: Our Autonomy (The Power and Right to Choose Confidently and not Doubt or Question our Choices) and our Authority (The Power we have to Wield our Dreams, Wishes, and Voices). And within two years, our own parents take these two things away from us.
An Abuser needs three things from us:
- Ignorance
- Cooperation
- Availability
But an Abuser requires three things from themselves:
- Ignorance
- Hopelessness
- A surplus of ill-managed and unnavigated emotions that evolve into Subconscious Intentions.
A Self-Healer requires four things from themselves:
- Knowledge and Education for Comprehension
- Hope
- Determination
- Open Mindness
When you understand that this is and was a fight, battle, and/or war for your Autonomy and your Authority practiced and obtained through Choice, which consequently gives you your Security, and all of which makes up your Story, this will do a lot to simplify your Healing and get you back on track.
One must always ask “Why” and “How” you lost your Autonomy and your Authority. Remember, you must understand.
You lost your Autonomy and your Authority because your Parents and/or Abusers did not know any better or different than they were taught, and they were discouraged and hopeless for answers, solutions, or something better than they knew. They had Subconscious Intentions. And you were convenient in ignorance, cooperation, and availability.

That is why.
“Why you?”
Well… because *you* are somebody. Or, I should say, because you *are* somebody. We’ll cover this more later in “Beyond The Healing.”
