Sarah's Story

Sally's Inner Portrait 2003

What this Inner Portrait has done for me now -- and I think probably did with this opening up -- is I finally saw her not from a mother-daughter perspective, but as a human being. And I've had real compassion for her powerful inner life, her being an only child, her falling in love with my dad. So I am blessed with this connection. I am blessed that I was able to recognize the dark side in the relationship and work it out. Because that is such a gift. One of my intentions is to open my heart. It took the gift of my mom -- and once my heart is opened, I can fly.
