I find happiness in blogging. I find release in blogging. Blogging gives me a sense of being heard. I know there are many of us who feel invisible from time to time. So to you a say this. Find yourselves. Express yourselves. Accept yourselves. And finally, share your pain...
I am a mother of two daughters. I am adored by one daughter. She is my greatest joy! But that's another story😏. I am scorned by the other. She is my deepest pain.
Rejection by a child that you have loved and adored all of her life is one of God's greatest mysteries. She is the walking dead to me. She walks the earth but has no part of our lives. After trying over and over for over 10 years, I realized that I am not equipped to change the situation. I realized this was not my battle to fight. I realized I must trust my God and move on.
This is not a unique circumstance. Yet as mothers we are judged and labeled "less than" when our children are crippled by society. Crippled in the sense that while I can proudly say that both my daughters are vital productive members of society, one chooses to turn her back on her entire immediate family.
To all you mothers who have given your hearts to your children, do not despair. Believe in yourselves and let the chips fall where they may. Be grateful and stay humble. If God actually wanted things to be different - they certainly would be.
So don't feed into judgement by others. Stay focused on God. Enjoy his blessings upon you. Again I say... if things were to be different.... they would be. If you have a child that wants nothing to do with you and you raised that child and loved that child all of its life - move on... GOD IS PROTECTING YOU and those who love you!🙏🏾
