Something positive finally!
Permalink  

I had the best time this afternoon and evening because I was able to do something I haven't done in a a few years--haven't been invited--long story, gave my parents hell growing up and then some, but....


Right before my dad came to get me I was informed that I was invited for Christmas Dinner.


One thing I have accomplished in my life is to let my mom be who she is and stop trying to get the love and approval from her in the way I want it. I will be searching forever. She has issues, but that woman loves me, my dad too. I was with my 15 year old daughter (wants to have a sex change?)


Lots of issues, but today everything was put on hold and I had the best experience at my parents house I think I may ever have. I learned to let go.


 


Anyone out there can you help me figure out letting go like that incorporated with dealing wih my A?


 


I have attached some very beautiful and interesting pictures for your enjoyment and enlightenment.


God Bless

When I started to try and let go, the first time was as wonderful as you are discribing.  When the next time came around that I had to give it a shot.  I thought about how difficult it was that first time, yet what a relief it was after it was all over.  That gave me that little push to give it the effort needed.  I did it before, I can do it again...Good luck!
