Letters Sharing the Journey |
Letter from Bre, a new friend of Trust Your Journey:
Hi,
My journey starts at the age of 17. My mom, had always been a troubled woman, but had a really knack at hiding it. I was her daughter so of course i could sense that something was always not right with her. I love my mom, but it was hard to love her through out my childhood because of the terrible memories with drugs and alcohol that I can recall. There wasn't a Christmas spent without my mom being hungover or still drunk from the night before. Parents fighting in front of my sisters and I. Screaming at us for telling them to stop. Terrible memories. And now here I am at 21 and for the past few years (since i was 17) my mom has stopped one bad addiction after going through treatment and picked up another. One word, Pills. The worst 5 letter word imaginable. I'm old enough now to understand it all and for the longest time i resented her. No, I hated her for doing this to our family and to herself. Loosing job after job. My father has been with her his entire life--35+ years. A man who devoted his life to her and who is now caring for a child, a spoiled selfish child who cares for nobody but herself and when her next fix will be. I could go on and on, but I'll choose to stop there. I don't know what kind of journey my mom is taking herself on, but i wish it wasn't the path she chose. I hope she can turn her life around and change before she looses everyone and everything that cares for her. My journey through all of this has been hard. Lots of crying, lots of "whys?" but I'm learning to understand something. Even after all those years of hating her because of events from my childhood, recent events made me realize that I love her more then anyone or anything on this earth and if I truly did hate her I wouldn't be trying so hard to save her. I wouldn't be hurting as bad as I do. Life has a funny way of teaching you things, but I'm learning to trust my journey.
Your friend, Bre
