[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 657417, member: 17461"] Do you see the power, accruing to the abuser, in this lie? Here is a secret: You did not come from your mother. You came from God. Cedar Here is the thing: One more time, a sinister thing, a terrible story told to hurt and shred and destroy [I]her own child, her own children.[/I] [I]And both our mothers told that same, so hurtful story. Yours, in how she felt when finally you were here, a newborn and utterly defenseless baby girl, and mine, in how, if only abortion had been legal, we would not be alive.[/I] Witness these events from your own perspective, not from hers, SWOT. What would you think, if you had learned the mother of your grandson had whispered those same words to him when he was newly born, when he was so new he knew nothing but what she told him about himself and his place in this new world where he found himself? And then, imagine what you might feel about her, if she whispered that same story to him and to everyone else, every year, on his birthday. But our mothers did not tell that story to anyone else. And you and I both know why. Because they knew how wrong, how horribly, unforgivably wrong it was to do what they did. And here is something for us to know: They did it, anyway. So, that would be malice aforethought. I see you. [I]I see you back.[/I] Snip. Cedar [/QUOTE]
