Mark13:24 and matthew24:29 say after the days of tribulation the sun will be darkened and moon will not shed light. It is referring to the total solar eclipse which happened in the year 24. The number 24 in both scripture is the year. We have same total solar eclipse coming april 08 2024. If you count the total solar eclipse back which only happens every 100yrs is the yr 24. So the next 1,000 years of tribulation/plagues is ..... 2117-2124/2217-2224/2317-2324/2417-2424/2517-2524/2617-2624/2717-2824/2817-2824/2917-2924/3017-3024/ and the list goes on i can give tribulation/plagues for the 3,000 years but only list 1,000 yrs

Oprah still doesn’t believe in seeking psychiatric treatment for her own trauma. Doctors need to CHECK THEMSELVES FIRST before pushing patients and others into a bottomless pit where nobody is ever cured during endless, expensive sessions. Watching Oprah affirms this after all these years. Since doctors refuse to seek treatment or disclose their psychiatric status, more of the public has chosen to stay away from doctors who don’t believe in what they are pushing on others.

Michele i am beating you so the white man wont. it wasnt because they wanted to. they just didnt want my actions calls the white man to beat me when she could have to corrected my actions when i was being bad when i thought i was having fun. i had trauma myself. so when i had my babies. you know i started spanking my babies. because that is all i knew. but then i looked at my babies and i prayed to my God to take that from me. i said to myself and to my babies. i know i can hurt you and i know their are other ways to punish you. and i refused to have you to remember the only way i know how to do is beat on you. so i stopped. because i refused to let this be their story about me... so dont judge our parents. maybe that is all they knew... have a great day...

I was talking with my mother last Saturday evening after spending some time with my toxic family and came home and was very suicidal she started yelling at me and freaked out and said she couldn't handle it and hung up on me and as always discussing the beatings that I remember and me being a supporting other peers in recovery I do share my story The Good The Bad and The Ugly and she's I hope you don't tell people that that never happen apparently we have two different remembrance of my childhood and I just turned 60 in the trauma continues every time I try to see them I'm no longer a people pleaser and we'll tell them straight up how I feel what I think they don't remember anything apparently I make everything up... what?

I’m also a light sleeper and I use to wake up in my bed completely scared and afraid and I’ve realized it’s childhood trauma. The saddest thing for an adult that had an abusive childhood is that we almost always remain those scared little kids inside but we have to function in a grown society.

I'm 54, still have all awful memories, scar's when I soo each of them I know what and happened, yes parents and grandparents be careful what you said or do to a child 💔 😭

She shared a pretty remarkable story (not being able to sleep well because of that one childhood incident) but what's even more noteworthy is that it took her decades to figure it out - makes you wonder how many people go through life, never "doing the work" to determine why they react to things the way they do, why they have the anger or resentment or addictions they have, etc.

I grew up with a mom who did not know how to be a mother 💪🥰 but it only made me stronger so I can be a great mom one day

I didn't knew this, Oprah you are the sweetest lady! Beating a child is unthinkable for any human being. I am still seeing abuse of children all around. When I see that I tell the parents I will call police right away. Oprah we love you, the world loves you, because you deserve it!

I was in a PTSD class for women recently. I had mixed feelings about it. And when my therapist when on maternity leave for a few weeks, I was left alone with my own thoughts. I thought I would get an audiobook, and I have trouble reading and focusing lately. But her book cut right through that. I am sorry what happened to Oprah happened. My trauma cannot even compare, but in many ways it left me equally scared. The book is not a book of coping skills or a way to get out of a situation. It is half memoir and half science, paired uniquely in such a way that it brings you up to the edge of trauma and what caused it. My take on it was that it not only shows how trauma and triggers shape us. I saw it as a door to finding compassion yourself in such a way that you can actually face your problems. I got more out her new book than I ever did out of that class. Thank you, Oprah. I was truly touched.

I can relate to her childhood trauma so much. But just like Oprah, I can see that my trauma has made me so strong and successful. I would not wish abuse upon anyone, but I believe that for me, it turned out to be a blessing in the long run. I learned a lot about the negative side of human beings and I rose above it.

I grew up watching her shows ...loved her words when they didn't make sense as I wasn't familiar with English at that time ...love from Pakistan.....Oprah is a great teacher

Thank you Miss Oprah for being vulnerable in front of all of us & so many others. This is my first time seeing you be out of the "in control" seat & in the I'm a human being just like you seat. It let's me know that my brokenness will be whole one day. YOU'RE TRULY APPRECIATED 🙏🏾

Dear Oprah, thank you for sharing your story. I’m from Singapore . My tears running down my eyes hearing your story. I was been taken care by my grandma during my childhood and my grandma love me very much. I was always feeling safe with my grandma even when my parents was not around. Today I’m a grandma myself and I always believe to give the best to my own granddaughter so that when she grow up she will always have the beautiful memories of how much her grandma love her. I never believe in beating the young children but speaking and correcting them would be a better way. God has belessed you with a beautiful heart as a person and you are now the most successful now. I always love watching your talk show and has learnt a lot from your story. The bible say god love the little children and god have been watching you from above. God love you and want you to spread the word love to the world.

I loved her in the movie, the color purple, things in the movie were things she dealt with. I can imagine the movie opened things up for her. She did good with her life.

Your so right Oprah!!! Yes! People pleasing will cause resentment. Now I do my giving when I'm inspired.

I wish I could have held her, told her I loved her, reminded her she is beautiful, and protected her.

She was adorable! So beautiful then and now

so moving and so so important to talk about this. As a therapist i am so grateful this information is coming from you both and to all . Thank you

thankyou for sharing childhood trauma is so painful the memories can be very vivid your voice shows others that they are not alone the people pleasing is the hardest

First time Someone has validated my feelings by knowing they experienced it before too.

I am a first generation Asian woman and I was corporally punished as a child too. It's domestic abuse, though relatives and family members regarded it as a cultural norm, and seem to feel no remorse about it in retrospect... how sad for them, to have such an impoverished mindset.

It's quintessential to open up about childhood trauma, especially when it affects the person as an adult. Going back to the "root cause" of the trauma is a great step towards healing and Oneness. Thanks for sharing your story with us Oprah 😘 01May2021

A lot of black parents have or had that problem (1:50) Instead of communicating and educating a child on what not to do, they beat them. She was a little bitty kid and didn’t know better.

So love and appreciate this woman. She is my mentor . I look up to her on so many issues. Her name is Oprah

She’s always able to explain this so clearly and I’m able to relate to her pain… it means a lot she came out to speak about this. My dad and grandfather would touch me at night and sometimes my dad would just open the door and stand there until my mom called for him. He’d just watch me and drink a beer. It always terrified me and my sister. She always tried to protect me from it when she could… but once I spoke out about it, she immediately rejected everything I said after we had a heart to heart… she wouldn’t exactly bring it up them either… but we got somewhere, we were able to break through further than we ever had…. And my mom threw me out when I told her, so I guess my sister just closed back up… but old if I can forgive her for that. I know I can never forgive my mom.

She’s still traumatized💔

This book is incredible! I ended up buying it because I wanted to underline and make note of some many revelations.

Me and my 3 siblings were beat on a daily basis with an oak bread board from the time we were 1 year old. I remember my baby brother being covered in bruises because he was “bad”. If we didn’t hold still while we were being beaten, we would be beat some more. One time my mother almost suffocated me to death by sitting on my head to hold me still as she proceed to beat me 100 times on my bare skin. I was 4 years old.

Tremendous testimony!

What a brave , courageous, and lovable lady,❤❤❤❤

Yes, overly nice = compliance under power----is what abuse aims to create.

Interesting!!

Is this the whole interview?? Anyone with the whole interview, kindly share a link

I am so fortunate to see Oprah and hear her speak about her upbringing, I felt connected with her. In order for Oprah or anyone who has a past to move forward. They, we must forgive forgive ourselves forgive our family members or anyone who impacts our lives in such a way. Easy to say and difficult to do.. If we choose not to forgive we create a wall in front of us that cannot be climbed. And we carry that like a weight around our neck. If we choose to forgive we break the chains of bandage that hold us back from our true potential. Chains that all of us share who are human beings. A weight around our necks. For myself I choose to forgive. And I am so thankful that my life has been such a blessing as a result of my action.. To include the good and the bad about myself. Understanding that no human being is perfect and we all fall short. GOD bless you Oprah for recognizing what is in front of you. And for working towards true forgiveness.

Very helpful video. Thank you. Love you both . God bless.

thank you oprah. love your show. and your sharings!

I love Oprah. She's a reflection of so many of us.

I’ve always thought this way. But, when I say to people “that murderer or pedophile I guarantee had the same done to them” and all the prisoners have had loads of abuse and abandonment, people role their eyes and get mad at me. 🤷🏿‍♀️

"Post traumatic wisdom." I look forward to reading your book. God Bless 🙏😇

Crimes against children, is the greatest sin. Stop the abuse. STOP the abuse of children. STOP!

I have never seen so many commercials. That is ridiculous.

I'm glad to hear her story ❤ In some cultures, hitting children is a hereditary habit, unfortunately, but the reasons differ, but the severe beating does not suit our current age

I learned at a very young age that there is a evil being and a wonderous loving being. The evil being will use those who are closest to you, to destroy you. The wonderous loving being will give you the power to overcome, what the evil being puts before you . I was 4 maybe 5 years old at the time, when I learned, this powerful lesson .

Her own life would be a great movie!

So touching

I want to reach through the screen and hug her.

But how did Oprah become so successful with so much trauma?

What an amazing human she is!! xxoxoxxo

I was never abused beyond being spanked by my adoptive father on my bare behind. One thing I think parallels battered spouses is that child abuse was not the fault of the victim/survivor. It was the total fault of the abuser/s. It is a sign of putting your past in the proper perspective by saying nothing that happened to me was my fault. I was not abused because I disobeyed or did not do something fast enough. It was because my abuser was acting irrationally. Nothing I could do or not do would change anything. I have watched videos on KZread about very young children being horribly abused, but they are the lucky survivors in that they were not killed by their parents. That they, as Ms. Winfrey was able to, go on to heal of their trauma, is a wondrous miracle and shows the strength of the human spirit inside them. They are the proof that children being abused can become adults who are loving, kind, and able to be married, run a household, and raise their own children in a warm, safe environment.
