My incessant need to ramble? LOL
Writing practice, not rambling!
Happy 4th of July -- I'm not feeling very patriotic.
As much as I cherish President Obama and treasure his many great accomplishments -- the evil republicans are simply wreaking too much harm and bad energy; bad, scary, sick energy.
We need Bernie Sanders in the white house next. So badly. He's the only one I trust.
On another note, I'm lucky and grateful for my little family (there are four of us), and for non-tradtional lasagna dinner we're having tonight! And traditional cherry pie! And I'm sure we'll play a game or watch a movie! And, hopefully, Richard and I can convince the girls to climb up on the roof with us again to watch the fireworks, weather permitting!
Mostly About My FOO (family of origin), And My Recovery From Them -- "If you know your mother doesn't tell you the truth, don't keep acting like she does." ~ Iyanla Vanzant "If you know that your father has a tendency to not honor his word, don't keep trusting he's going to do what he says he's going to do (just) because he's your father." ~ Iyanla Vanzant
2016 Update: I care more about this blog than I do that "they" can read it, otherwise I'd stop writing it and create a new one. As long as they finally leave me and my little family alone, there should be no problem, even though I requested that they don't read it. Since they have no interest in my writing, I'm probably safe. I hope so hard they will finally respect our wishes of no contact. I care so much about telling the truth and bringing healing. I fought my entire life to bring communication, truth, and healing to my FOO. There's nothing left to fight for so I have given up, at age 59. I can now only bring healing to myself and other survivors through my words. I finally went back to work on my heart-wrenching memoir that I wrote in 2012 that I originally wrote for them as my last Hope of getting my beloved family of origin and relatives back. But, There Are None So Blind As Those Who Will Not See
