I never know what to write in a blog. So I will use someone else's words or lyrics to convey what myself cannot express.

Thank you so much for this, @Enigma

I had to c*t both my brothers off ( one whom passed away a couple years ago whom I hadn't spoken to for more than 30 years) the other one ( a text book narcissist) I let back into my life only to end up enduring his ab*se and having to c*t him out of my life again.

So I completely relate to what you have shared.

Thank you again.❤️

I just heard this song in my playlist. A song of empowerment. I will rise.

These are empowering words.

I had to go no contact with " family" for, as it says here, my own PEACE.

Thank you so much for sharing.🩷

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Mary Elizabeth Frye

Remembering my parents this week. Tomorrow, July 17 would have been their 55 year anniversary. July 21 mom would have been 74. I miss them now more than ever. I can't wait to meet again.
