I have a direction ...


 

My HP laid this song on my heart a few days ago and I know what "my part " is to do to achieve the fulfillment promised. I want it.. I know it's right there at the tips of my fingers waiting for me... freedom & the peace I desire so much in my life, yet I dread hurting & abandoning the A that has never probably thought twice about hurting me with words, manipulation or other things.

I've promised this to myself.. This is my birthday gift to myself.. Freedom. Freedom from endless apologies and excuse and explanations and care-taking and all that goes with it. I want what little resemblance of a life & family members I've salvaged back.

Thanks for listening & always being there.. You all mean far more than you know, I have learned so much just reading here. - AP

(((((Angie)))))  You're there!! You're at the this is the real me point and what you use to think about me and say about me IS NOT TRUE.   I remember that day when I heard myself say that, out loud and not mean and face to face with some one who who made an untrue statement about me to me.

I heard myself say it, "That is not True" and I turned and walked away.  Stay the course sister...the lies and abuses are over, done, no more.  They get to feel their feelings and listen to their thoughts without you for any reason.  They are responsible...not you...not any longer and if you wish you could apologize for teaching them and letting them know or think that you would be their victim.  I did that and I listened to my apology as if I was also speaking to myself which I was.   "Free at last, Free at last...Thank God I'm free at last".

In your corner, in support.   (((((hugs))))) smile

Tenth Avenue North had been one of my favorite bands ever since I first heard there song You Are More, my all time favorite with the video of them standing in front of the chalk board. Thanks for this great song also. Nothing like having hope, faith and love.
