Today is the beginning of closing a chapter of my life I feel that I have did my part to reach out to this person. I don't feel it is fair for me to keep hanging on for someone who makes no effort to reach back. I love this person very much but I feel I don't get any love back. This person is my youngest daughter Jennifer. She finds no way to even try to meet me half way on having a mother daughter relationship and I am ready to deal with the way she feels about me and move on. I don't feel it is right for me to be the only one calling in order for us to talk. I feel I should concentrate on my children who do make time for me in their life and stop wasting time on one who does not care at all. I know this may sound harsh but you have to understand the reasons behind my decision. You would have to know Jennifer to realize how she is. I realize now that she truly blames me for everything bad in her life and she really does not care. By me being able to understand and deal with this I can get on with my life and be able to enjoy time with the rest of my family. I will always love and care for Jennifer I just don't want to play her games of life anymore. Besides she does not hurt from it I am the one who has been doing all of the hurting and dealing with the guilt. It time for me to put the guilt away and move on with the rest of my life.
