Lot of people waste their time in idle gossip and fault finding and criticism out of some negative need in their personality and to their own hurt eventually. Proud of my niece and my great niece for speaking the truth in love. God's truth which admonishes all who hear to do what is right, not a schema in their mind that will some day come tumbling down. Choose the good way ♥
For those of you who grew up in unbroken homes--
You never had to wait hours, days, sometimes months or years
To see your father/ mother, you probably don’t have abandonment issues.
You grew up with both of your parents. You don’t know what it is like to tell a child that daddy/momma isn’t coming to pick you up for the bi-monthly visitation that was promised
and to hear that child scream and cry “daddy /momma promised he/she was coming today”
and to see the pain and sorrow in that little child’s eyes. Do you have any idea how that molds a child’s self-image or self-worth?
No, you don’t know. Comments invited.
Imagine a newly divorced mother. She is a nurse’s aide; she has to work long shifts to support her two children. Your city is south Houston. You live on avenue A in a duplex. Your Fathers new wife is dangling her infant daughter on her knee telling your mother that she needs to find a man like she has found to take care of her child. Imagine the enmity between these two women. Imagine the innocence of the children involved. Imagine having to hear the stories you would hear. Imagine being ignored in favor of the new …out with the old. In with the new! We were innocent. Me, Linda, Kimberle.
ReplyDeleteBeing innocent did not exclude us from the wraith of 2 women who obviously hated one another. Is this why God hates divorce? Yes. To be continued..
For sure it is a part of the WHY!
