But it is all semantics, sorry.

I,personally believe that it’s when we let go of the need for justice.. that it is most readily found.. or is it that I’m just no longer paying attention to it so I don’t notice how long it takes…? Either way.. it has it’s own time and measurements to which I do not pretend to have knowledge. Hope your Mother’s Day was filled with love and gratitude for life breathe and rides to everywhere. XOXO

I can’t thank you enough and I wish there was something I could do for you when you are hurting so much. My thoughts are with you. I can promise you, pain and grief does end eventually. As Churchill said, “When you are going through hell…..keep going”. You can do it.

It’s why we tell our children we love them but not their actions at times.

Something has flipped in that one.. and at some point she will balance out realizing that even if she wasn’t “where she was supposed to be” she should have been more sensitive and respectful to the one that affords her that and always has. … being the bigger person.. is some stupid ass shit sometimes… but it is the right thing to do.

The other right thing to do.. is to focus on you. Not her, or her… or him.. or them…. but you. What do YOU need right now that doesn’t involve anyone else or their bullshit. An hour spent cooking for just you and the kids… the way you used to before you worried about everything… (I know those and miss them as well). Whatever comes to mind (aside from harming others lol)… do it. Give yourself the love you had planned on giving someone else.

And try to forgive others for their lapses in judgement and consideration… for as much as they should.. they have nothing to do with you,.. it’s about something they are missing inside of themselves.

<3 and all that other good shit. ; }

Don’t treat people as bad as they are… treat them as good as you are.

Kathryn I know you are hurting now; but take some time to proudly celebrate your gleefulness…

My Dad hurt my Mom for over 30 years……..and with more than 1 woman. One of them being our next door neighbor and my confirmation sponsor when I was 12. The next was a woman down the street who was friends with my parents….my Mom wallpapered her kitchen for her. My Mother became an alcoholic and thankfully went to rehab but she never got over it and never forgave him. It was part of my childhood. People are so hurtful. It’s selfish and cruel. They think only of themselves. Love and hugs to you and your girls.
