This was much harder than I expected... Going to this exhibition. I really wanted to spend time with each piece but it was too confronting. Comments about the course from the participants evaluation sheets were read out including these " It enabled women survivors to work more on boundaries" and "Their connection with the art therapist and the Canberra Rape Crisis Centre counsellor was indicated as "two precious names in my healing journey." The last quote I almost cried when I heard it. I left there wondering who wrote it. I suspected the boundary one was from my form.
One of the two people Id invited turned up. Theresa Angert-Quilter the most fab minister, in a lovely pink linen shirt. Have I said before that this woman ROCKS!!!!? Luckily Melinda and Elizabeth who were in my group were there and I felt safe then. And Aileen Mahoney and Elizabeth Burn who ran the course welcomed me. Aileen cried when I gave her the card (the St Ninians Jalbu). She said she was going to treasure it for ever. Inside the card I said that her body language told me that she was excited by what I was doing and that she had seen Jalbu coming a long time before I did. After a short time I started having a hot flush, but it didn't stop it kept coming and I had to leave as it was all too much for me.
