"I believe in you"

Recently I have been having random memories coming up. This one is quite confusing to me but maybe somewhat confirming. I would like others feedback on this as to what they think this phrase could mean. I had a memory of my auntie saying to me "I believe in you." My auntie knew somewhat what was going on at home, but this phrase is confusing to me, as it was said to me when I was little. My thoughts are it means she either believed what was going on or meant something else by it. I find this memory somewhat comforting but confusing at the time. What are your thoughts? Anyone had anyone say this to you either when you were little or later on in life? If so what are your thoughts on this phrase? My memories are slowly coming into awareness and are very confusing but at least they are starting to come back right?

Please be reassured that these memories are not random. They are glimpses of the truth, important signs of progress and healing. The Self is extremely cautious about what and how quickly it allows me to remember. I have been an extremely slow learner but have come to respect that the truth it is unfolding was unbearable to me at another time in my life. I do my best to accept what has been revealed to me now and to trust my feelings and hunches about what remains hidden. They are always pointing the way.

Over and over against my therapist's recommendations I have tried to speed up the process. Each time my efforts were frustrated. The mind continue to protect, dissociates to divert and confuse when I press to discover things I am not ready to know, going as far as my female alter destroying chunks of my journal to re-hide things I had managed to force to the top.

It is hard to resist the urge to press forward as bits and pieces of our past come into focus, to want to know how these glimpses of the past fit into the big picture. We simply cannot force the process. When the pupil is ready, the teacher will appear.

Hi I have heard this said by ower Mum to my sister when we were small it was ment in away that mum under stoad that my sister even though she was young was a person in her own right and that my sister now her own mind. Ower Mum used it quite often to show that she undstoad my sisters and she serported them in the choses in life. So in my eyes it is a good thing to have said to you.

Seeing as how this is one of the most powerfully positive phrases in the English language, when said honestly, I think this would be a very good memory and contain a very good meaning. If you were often undervalued, demeane, berated in childhood (and abuse implies all of these), hearing that may have meant a tremendous amount to you.

In my career, I have often been in a superior position over other people and I have managed a lot of people. I've found that this phrase or something close to it, spoken at the appropriate point in a conversation with another person, works near magic. It's especially effective when someone is doubting their own abilities, such as intelligence, dependability, imagination.
