Big hug to all of those who have/had a shitty mom and is having a tough time today

31. So sorry

I'm so sorry that you had a sick Mother.

I had wonderful parents but both of my siblings are nightmares.

I've come to the conclusion that just because we're born in to a tribe of people doesn't mean we have to love them. It's taken me years to let go of my siblings but when I finally did, my life improved so much. Neither of them treated me with love and respect but always expected me to give that to them. Nope, sorry, that doesn't work for me.

Now my life is peaceful, though sometimes lonely because I have no family left. Luckily, I have a wonderful husband who is my true soul mate and who supports me.

I wish you peace - please be gentle with yourself! Thanks for sending support to those who are suffering today.

I cry today because I miss my Mother so much even though she died over 15 years ago right around Mother's Day. She was a true Southern Belle!
