Daniel's Story from Victim to Peace ArchitectConfronted with a self-driven, unlearnt concept, of experiencing unconditional forgiveness (Peace), for horrific experiences that happened across my childhood (8-18 years old), at the hands of Australia’s most notorious paedophile Gerald Ridsdale, would shape the person whom I have become and continue to evolve into.
At the time I had no idea how these traumatic and catastrophic experiences, would cripple and rip my life apart, from limb to limb, I carved and diced my limited and naive understanding about life to such a degree that suicide was the most favourable outcome. Even in those dark, dark spirals of incredible pain, betrayal, shame, not belonging, believing I was a piece-of-trash, loneliness, drunkenness, depression, psychosis, anxiety, being destitute, feeling unloved, unwanted, resorting to aggression and guilt, I knew suicide was not the answer, as I had not explored every possible avenue, every possible perspective to arrive at my experience of unconditional Forgiveness (Peace) for myself. Finally, during a recent project to develop an aspect of my work into a deliverable frame work, to our surprise both Diane and I identified was that my journey was to live 3 major agreements, those being:
The Living Peace Clinic and its programs are the result of these "sacred quests". Evolution of Peace ArchitecturePeace Architecture is an evolution spanning three decades of questioning, risking, exploring, reflecting, running, glancing, being hunted, dying, forgiving, reconditioning, reinventing, reprogramming, forging, falling in love and crying that has so gracefully encouraged me to arrive at "Now" & for you to have arrived at "Now" to be reading these words. You, like me, have an accumulation of life-challenges and experiences, which may have catastrophic consequences of varying degrees, both for ourselves, our partners, our loved ones, our families, our local communities and wider society. Peace Architecture is one of many road maps of how to travel and recognize the splendor of "your" journey that effortlessly forges your uniquely individual version of "Your" Truth. I invite you to walk "Yours". QualificationsDiploma Counselling Diploma Community Services M.A.C.A (Level 1) Life Journey = Living PeaceIf I were to live the life that I have now and continue to evolve/live through over again, I would be there in a heart beat. In many ways I am no different to anyone else, except how I "feel" to learn, except how I "feel" to live, except how I "feel" to evolve. Much of what I have learnt and incorporated into my life came from within me. I am not worldly, I have not attended spiritual schools, I have not sat in front of spiritual masters, guru's, sages for years, I have not dedicated myself to sit in ashrams month after month, following some one else, following other ideas and notions that don't make sense to me. **** I am not knocking these beautiful and sacred practices, quite the opposite, there are many '000's of beautiful sacred practices, enjoyed by many '000,000's of incredible souls across the world, except they were not me, they didn't resonate with me ***. What I did do, was to seek out in silence, observe patterns in silence, listen in silence, watching for that "something" that specifically resonated with me, at such a deep level that it would rock my world to the core, it would feel unfamiliar, yet vaguely somehow familiar. Taking a gamble to finally leave my corporate life behind and moving with my partner interstate to somewhere we never lived before and carving out a new life for us, for each other...... In 2007- 2008 I met a beautiful "gifted" lady in the town where we were living. At the time I was upto my neck and drowning in my yucky stuff, I was going under fast, real fast. No matter where I looked for help, no one connected, no one understood, no one wanted or would help, I tried every single avenue that would bring me a sliver of hope, just a sliver of hope, to be able to pull myself impossibly out of my sh*& and forge a path, forge a journey that really answered my great questions about life and what the hell was life all about, death, and many other colorful structures. Then I met Blossom Goodchild, incredible, simply incredible. The simple, yet incredibly powerful wisdom spoken by "White Cloud" through Blossom rocked my world, rocked every part of my being moving me along a different gentle perspective, as I somehow gracefully navigate my incredible journey. I would not change a thing, its all so simple, well kinda simple.... Thank you Blossom for being the messenger that you are, being the beautiful lady that you are, for being my friend, you living your purpose, in your truth, so that others like me, can too step into our Strength, into our Courage, into our Peace, into our Love, into our uniquely and highly individualized brilliant lights as our unknown, yet calmly undeniable "Truth", as one united with all there is... Finally, this magical simple stuff, that I stumbled upon as I wandered on the long magical & somewhat sacred climb out of my stuff really made sense, with each baby step it resonated more, till the baby step really resonated, because it was simple, yet incredibly challenging to move through. You too can do it, you are probably already doing some of it already and are not aware of it, the subtle nature of life itself. I invite you too give it a go, its an incredible journey, that has many times left me in awe of the most simplest of things.... Imagine, just imagine for a minute, how would you "feel" living on earth in Peace, all over the world living in total Peace, every single person living their incredible life in Peace. Fairly impossible, sure, but I love impossible, don't you? Now that is something that really rocks my boat, that's a life that I would love to explore and experience for the rest of my life. It can happen, I invite you to find that special "something" that rocks your boat and feel what it really fees like living life on a higher vibration, "the world looks the same, but "feels" different", our perspectives are changing, ignite your life, one incredible baby step after another!! Watch how quickly fear evaporates from your perception, its wild and awesome... Impossible, oh yes, once, but not "Now"... This is my version of Peace evolving gently, gracefully, humbly... Sexually abuse as a child for many years, so many unanswered questions, so many tears I have had for "Danny" who did not have "fun", was a loner, who grew up real fast. "Now" am proud of how we can all turn our stories around, one baby step at a time, simply, easily, purposefully, intentionally. Individually forging different incredible beautiful lives for the good of ourselves, for the good ALL, for the good of ALL people!! |
