Thank you for sharing a part of your journey with us this month. Was a great read and I'm glad that you didn't toss it when you wanted to. Keep grinding and have a fantastic holiday season.
Bro, I understand more than you know. I’m the oldest of 3. I’m considered the experimental child because they never did what they did to me. My pops was around but not in the manner that I expected. His alcohol was more important than us. In the same vain my mom never knew how to draw a line so I never had the ability to learn when to say when. I begged her to separate and that never happened. Eventually the drinking caught up to him and he succumbed to esophageal cancer. Cancer actually turned him into person I wanted to see. Funny how death turns people around. But I never learned any masculine traits from him. Any way I never knew what being a dad or father consisted of. I thought it was all like TV and movies or worst Disney! Plus I didn’t care for confrontation. Fast forward to having my two kids and I was supersede. But then I couldn’t be the husband to someone I chose to marry because we just were not meshing.So I decided on divorcing. Everything I had hopes for had vanished. I wasn’t trying to be Mr. Single life. I just wanted what I was searching for all my life. Well anyway fast forward to being financially devastated and deemed un-dateable due to finances. Now I have a son who doesn’t speak to me and for all intensive purposes probably wants nothing to do with me. Yet my daughter still adores me. Holidays suck. It’s a reminder to me that everything I wished for is not the dream I had envisioned. I can’t make any of it up. I just have to hope that what I did was right for them as well as me. I’m glad you never had to feel this kind of craziness that exists. Bless you. You did something right. I wish I had a piece of that glimmer!
