     | I know I am now ready to move forward with my life. I have 2 daughters who I now realize can't forgive me for past mistakes,but I must move forward. I still have a loving husband and 3 sons who all love me very much. I feel I did my part in reaching out to them and they have shown me that is not what they want. I will continue my therapy and learn to cope with how things have turned out. I have a grandson who loves me very much and will be living really close so I can enjoy being a grandmother. I am happy about that and look forward to my oldest son and his family moving down real soon. I can't just sit around and mope over a situation I can't control. I have tried to have a relationship with both of my daughters and they are not willing to do their part in reaching out to me. I love both of them very much and always will. I must realize that the rest of my family loves and cares about me and life is too precious to waste. I have been getting back on track and doing some spring cleaning and planting flowers. I am finding ways to stay busy and move forward. My husband loves me and works 6 days a week to take care of me. He deserves better than for me to just mope around and do nothing. I know the mistakes and bad decisions that I made in my past. I can't go back and change them I can only understand why I made them and move forward. I can only know that I did the best I could. Maybe one day they will find it in their hearts to forgive me. I just know that I have a lot to live for and now that my children are all grown my husband and I can enjoy the rest of our lives together. Afterall these are suppose to be our best years. I have been doing a lot of writing and sharing my experiences hoping to help other women by telling my stories of things I have gone through. If I can help just one woman it will be well worth it. |
