"Your steadfast way of life was my greatest gift because it led me to the path I walk today".
Or, as I used to say, "Gifted by pain". By the suffering I went through for the relationship with my parents. For their little emotional maturity. For my lack of emotional depth.
Until everything changed. Just because of that pain. That was the enabler of new growth.
This made me stop and think. Also to adjust and accommodate. To have patience and just let my mom be who she is without putting pressure on myself or to feel guilty about what I can or cannot do. Thank you for your perspective and words from your heart.
