Mother, it's so hard
to let you go. You know you have had a profound effect on me. What can I say or do today that will soothe me? You knew the truth but could never face it. You covered yourself in lies and could not find a way to open your eyes and deal with your madness. "Crazy" you are, "insane" you are not. You grieve your deep sorrow but never find relief because the pain does not cease when you won't go inside or try to see your own life as it is. Well, it is as it is. It is what it is. May you find release one day. May you find peace one day, I pray. Yes, I pray. You have always been Loved. JDS 06/26/08 |

I know how frustrating it is not to be able to help those we love work throught their frustrations and anger. We only ever want the best for them. All we can do is hope that someday they will see the light.

Sometimes, we cannot help others find freedom from bonds they chose for themselves; we can only release them to be free - or not.
Excellent, as ever. |

Ty {{{kc}}} Zanne, I'm very sorry for your sadness as well; I know Alzheimer's Disease is a very painful way to lose a parent, particularly since in happens in stages. You and your family are in my prayers It's funny, but no matter how old our parents get, we never seem to stop needing them....oh, the type of needs change, but the bond does not, whatever the circumstances. |

A very nice poem Angel and felt..
Many a parent here as everywhere has other old age fighting their presents or self abusives that they cannot stop doing..BUT that parent is who and why WE were even born. So in THAT we grow and feel their sufferings no-matter, their reasons. My dad was an abusive drunk,,no feelings for anyone not even himself..But when he about died he tried to be human,it was to late for all his children to EVER forgive him so he passed that away. And never to say I love you to a soul..AND we all NEVER felt that nor heard that from him.. I have never lost any sleep with knowing he did have his own type of love for us all at his last 5 years of living..But that ability to not say I LOVE YOU in him,,,MADE ME raise mine saying it ALWAYS,lol,,so through his bad as a parent he taught me never to abuse, or be a drunk, or not to tell another how you feel... When a group of words opens a heart and mind, then it should be seen as a one-of-a-kind.........lol |
