So inspiring! She now has a foundation or org. that helps others with the challenges they face, similar to her. She ended up taking action and making something great out of what could have been completely debilitating for many others. Something about her upbringing and her parents, she did not absorb and become a 'victim'. She kept that stuff to a minimum, apparently without much trouble. She seems to of been fortified somehow. likely with Beliefs that worked for her but also spiritually somethow be it guardian angels, Higher Self, or what have you.
She's a woman with a mission now but she could not have gotten here if you'd of asked her ego at age whatever it was this happened at, if she was willing to go through such experiences in order to serve others down the line in precisely this way. No, the ego would of said no so, she had to enter into the kidnapping event 'unconsciously', that is, not knowing herself as the creator of it. Actually she was just one of the many. So,
there are purposes and perfections for our unconsciousness. It makes it so we can grow in the ways we've set for ourselves at an other than 'conscious' level. The greater Self does not have the time constraints we do as a incarnated being. It sees our actions here from a whole other view than we do. IT is willing for us to take decades to learn a particular lesson if need be. IT is willing for us to go through traumas and anxieties that we would not choose at an ego level.
Were it up to the ego alone we would play the game of life all to safely.
Here is a bit about her foundation:
What
if we could prevent future crimes against children?
Born out of the nightmare
that was our story,
our foundation rests on the single question.
Too many families experience
the nightmare of having a child go missing. I know what it is like to
be that child. I know what it is like to think that one false move
may lead to not only your own death but the death of family members
as well. Nobody can ever blame a child for their actions when they
are being threatened, bullied, forced, or coerced into doing
something unthinkable. That is why the “Elizabeth Smart Foundation”
was created, because what if we could prevent future crimes against
children? Wouldn’t it be worth it to do everything to bring home
that one child?
Yes it would.
The Elizabeth
Smart Foundation is
an organization that convenes the proven efforts of partner
organizations to not only prevent future crimes against children, but
to address victims, survivors and families with the resources and
community they need to encourage hope and empower their future.
