[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 626759, member: 17461"] And you will not be like me either, COM. Finally doing the work now, in my sixties, to free myself of so many wrongnesses I could not even see. I blamed myself for things I had no part in and no control over. The blessing is that if we are willing to do the work on ourselves, if we are willing to stick with it and we have a good support system in place (thank you, each of you, here on the site) we can reach for that freedom at any time. I so appreciate your sharing this story with us here. Spending our lives and whatever good fortune we manage to accumulate on repeatedly rescuing those who refuse to do the hard work of rescuing themselves can and does happen to decent people every day. I am only just now learning to see and to accept that it is what it is. It is what it is. I am sorry this is happening in your family. Reading about it was an opportunity for me to whisper a wholehearted prayer of thanksgiving that I am not there, anymore. Cedar [/QUOTE]
