The C. Melita Webb Poetry and Life
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
Hello, and thank you for joining us for a few moments of inspiration and loving conversation with C. Melita Webb. Today we talk about how traumatic events such as divorce, abuse, abandonment, bullying, pain, death of a loved one, and life, in general, can impact our walk of faith and the way we see the world.
The prompt for this discussion is an article in the Huffington post personal essay section. A writer disclosing how she was traumatized as a young child and then felt subsequent trauma again once something else occurred in life in her later years.
I share with you the story about a time I was walking in my community, and a little Hispanic girl, maybe 5/6 years stepped off the curb without her parents' knowledge. She didn't realize everyone else was still waiting on the curb. She began to walk into the lane of traffic. Because she was so tiny, she didn't see the oncoming traffic.
But thankfully, I could see that she was in danger. Her parents smiled and nodded in thanks but didn't speak. My thought was there was probably a language barrier.
I was fighting asthma and rushed to share this thought. In my haste, I used the wrong phrase. I meant that,"She was too close to the curb."
Side note, I still live in the same community. If you are apart of that family or the łittle girl who was grabbed by a stranger in Columbia City, I would love to know how you are doing.
