RE: A letter to my abuser, One I should have wrote years ago. This is for my benefit, you dont have to read it.
I have very similiar things happen,but i don't think I will put them on the net for people to see. I just got on with my life.
We are all different how we deal with these things, this works for me.
I'm very glad you were able 'just to get on with your life'.
Obviously, that's not the case here. I'm hoping your comment was meant to be supportive, not dismissive. That was an unfortunate choice of phasing, imo.
My comment was just my statement regarding myself. No one else.
If you looked at some of my what I call my writings 'Hard Poetry', this is the way I interpret what happened to me. It is the way I choose to get rid of all the badness throughout the years.
There are way too many people I would have to mention,and it has destroyed my life and with my family for not believing.But as time goes on,you don't forget or forgive. It will always be a part of you. That's what these people leave us with. It also went on with the priests at our catholic church among other places. With those experiences,we are able to raise our own kids,watch for signs,talk to them, and keep on top of it all,so they don't ever have to go through what we did. My kids are grown now, and they are fantastic. They can pass on my knowledge to their kids now.
Thanks for the clarification. The phrasing just hit me a little sideways as it could be seen as flippant. I'm glad it wasn't. Am also glad you found a healthy outlet for your emotions, too. Best wishes.
And also to you!
I wish I would have that urge to write a letter but over time living life and my own ways to cope I decided to let it be. I am so proud I turned out to be a very strong woman and refuse to be a victim. "Coldblooded Forgiveness" is another form of trusting in karma and the universe who fixes more than I ever could.
I feel and hear you Karen and you can be proud of yourself to let go .
