[QUOTE="Scent of Cedar *, post: 619322, member: 17461"] I wonder if the sadness has to do with having gone against every old, familiar pattern, Recovering? Until time passes and we see the rightness of a thing, change is only change. And it is scary. And I am amazed. This is the thing that mother I am always talking about would do, Recovering! She would have courage to see it ~ as you did, even if only for an instant [U]and pursue that thing that told her something was not right.[/U] I love your clear description of the steps, of how each felt, of how one led to the next. Imagine if you had turned away, turned toward some comforting, enabling, controlling strategy, instead. ************** Maybe the something that has ended is the enabler's "hit", the thing that tells us we did it, we saved them, we are in control and nothing is going to go wrong. Know that I am sending you so much good energy, Recovering. It [U]is[/U] hard. You [U]are [/U]doing it ~ honestly, with thought and kindness and care. You've done it. This was the final step in changing things for your generations. Maybe part of what you are feeling is the echoing spaces into which there is now room for you to grow. You have earned it, Recovering. I see it is possible. I will get there, too. :O) Cedar [/QUOTE]
