Forgiveness, certainly rids that kind of poison from our lives. But is sometimes hard to do. <br />Thanks for sharing that part of your life. It has a powerful message.

My mother never cheated, she was always home, my Dad was not an alcoholic, he was a wonderful man, but my mother was hard and cold, no matter how many times I try to analyze why she was like this, whatever reason I find, does not erase my resentment. I will never know what it is to have had a loving mother who was supportive, who'd take my side no matter what. A mother who'd let me breathe! and that has filled me with deep resentment for many years. I am not sure if I have "really" forgiven her but I no longer dwell on it. Mary, this was a powerful post.

My mother didn't cheat and my father wasn't an alcoholic, just not able to be fully present. When my parents divorced and my mom started dating and really sewing her oats as she had married her first love (big mistake) she never really knew who she was and I was neglected in the process. It's taken me a long time like yourself to know that forgiveness does not mean forgetting, but it's a way to let go of our pain so we don't end up bitter and a victim. Thank you so much for sharing your story.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05078434289667660306noreply@blogger.com
