[QUOTE="Weary Mother, post: 698789, member: 20487"] Good Morning, it is back to work and to the real world for me after 3 days of being out camping. I am enjoying a small amount of peace recently and am trying to practice this each day. I am aware that at any time I can have a relapse and that I am not very good yet at detaching but am working on it. It occurred to me over the weekend that this is the first holiday weekend for a long time that I haven't gotten emergency calls from my son telling me things that completely wrecked my day. For the last few years I had been getting calls from him that he was either about to be killed, beaten up, or was starving or freezing or something really horrible. And I will tell you that no matter how hard I tried it really devastated me each time. I fear living like that again. The stress of the worry is just so hard. So, for today and this moment, I am keeping my head up, taking care of myself, letting my grown children suffer the worry of their own life and trying to let go of everything else. [/QUOTE]
