Crying Soul Tears™ on Waxed Floors: A Recovery Story

 

✨ Waxed Floors✨

πŸͺž The mirror I use now is sacred πŸͺž
I see myself clearly.
I speak with love.
I am not what they projected —
I am what I reclaim.

🧬 Are You Someone Who Inherited Zero Self-Worth? Yeah, You are, I am, They are, Most Are— we just don’t know it yet.

Are you someone who grew up following a rigid belief system — or inherited a worldview from family, religion, or culture — that subtly poisoned your self-worth, relationships, or sense of purpose? πŸ§ πŸ’” I was. I am. I have kids — and they are too. It’s generational trauma¿De quΓ© estΓ‘s hablando?

The poison started early — kindergarten age.

I had a basic need: I had to use the bathroom. 🚻 So I followed my inner urge, got up from the couch, and walked across the floor. The floor had just been waxed — this was in the ’60s, and yes, women waxed the floor back then. It was a *big deal.*

Out of nowhere, Margarita flew into a rage. 😑 She threw my sibling (a first grader) and me out of the house. Yes, she did — out into Chicago, of all places. And yes, we didn’t speak English. Only Spanish.

We walked to the only safe place we knew: Ms. P’s classroom at school. πŸ«πŸ‘©‍🏫 We were small. We were stunned. We had been introduced to the generational curse.

And something cracked inside me that day. It said: 
“Don’t have needs, and don’t ask for help.”

That’s when the poison began to seep into my little body. πŸ§ͺ It started there — but it didn’t stay there.

It leaked into everything:
Relationships. Identity. Faith. Body. Work. Worth. I thought I could hide it — I couldn’t.

πŸ’” From Rigid Faith to Internal War

To make sense of the pain, I became a fanatical Christian πŸ™ — not from peace, but from fear. I obeyed every rule. (Well... I faked it. Remember: zero esteem.)

I tried to earn worth through righteousness, routine, and repression. Talk about a people pleaser! (Hi, CoDA!)

When that didn’t work, I turned to the internal drugstore: πŸ’ŠπŸ·πŸ”₯ (Tune in — that’s another story.) I would eventually find the external drugs too.

But oh no — this wasn’t something I could escape. The ancestors want relief — and I am going to deliver it.

The pain has history. It still stings now. The descendants are in the mix too.

There’s no bypassing this work. Yes, I have to work on it DAILY!!

🧬 I Learned: The Body Is A Factory And A Chemical Lab

I inherited celiac disease — and with it came a physical manifestation of zero self-worth:

  • Boils
  • Pimples
  • Pustules
  • Cramps
  • Intolerances of all sorts

My skin and my organs — they became enraged. Wars would ensue inside my body. The poison was trying to get out.

These eruption began around age 20 and lasted for two decades. By 40, my organs began to deteriorate. The damage had surfaced. πŸ«€⚔️

πŸ•Š️ Something Big Is About To Shift

Now, at 60, I’ve learned: This isn’t just my pain. It moves backward. It moves forward. It will not be ignored. Lo tienes que mover 

It’s generational. It’s ancestral. And finally — it’s beginning to heal. πŸŒΏπŸ’«

But let’s be clear:
It doesn’t heal on its own. This is a process. I’ve been walking this healing path for 30+ years. 🐒 🐌  Thanks old School self - help authors.
