Bury The Hatchet by Portia Twala

Self-healing is a never-ending journey that serves as food for the soul when earnestly seeking to overcome the pain of past hurt.
Bury the Hatchet is a memoir by Portia Twala on the primary role of parenting styles from a mother’s perspective and the importance of emotional availability which both can have a ripple effect on a child’s overall life.
Bury the hatchet is an American English idiom that means “to make peace”.
Portia has taken it upon herself to embrace the gift of self-healing by reflecting on her own childhood days including the painful events she encountered as she was growing up. She unlocks her path towards making peace by unfolding the pain, anger, resentment and despair she faced because of her own mother’s inability to embody the purest form of love.
The role and position of a mother to a child is of great value and not receiving that can lead to perpetuating life patterns through blame and anger.
“There is no alternate route to healing and purpose without self-reflection and the acknowledgement that all the events of life make us who we truly are.” When one can finally “Bury the Hatchet”, they claim back their lives and it delivers the ultimate price of freedom, healing and contentment.
