[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 674507, member: 17461"] Oh, wow. These people are sick; evil. Maybe, there was no sister for the grandmother to align against the daughter with. Does the lady have a sister Serenity, do you know? How awful. I would be so hurt if this happened to me that I would be free of the whole works. So, now we know why that never happened. It is a good discussion item Serenity, but more importantly, it is a place for us to stand; a way for us to know that what happened to us was real. When we are the only ones, it is impossible to recover ourselves. It requires belief in ourselves to overcome what they taught us about ourselves. I can see the machinations in this grandmother's behaviors in a way I cannot see, or automatically excuse, things my mother does. It is interesting to note that the more time that passes between the last time I saw or dealt with my family of origin and now, they shine for me. Just lately, they have seemed so beautiful, like the sun rising over a hill or something. I am glad we had this conversation. I have a tendency to pretty everything up and forget all about the false, sour, ring of cheap tin and not crystal after all notes these persons continually inject into the symphony that is my life. I learned about a Japanese composer the other day, you guys. I did not know then why I found his story so fascinating. I have been trying to look him up online to learn more, but cannot remember his name. We are the conductors. That is why. Cedar [/QUOTE]
