Guest guest Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 This post was going around on Facebook today and I thought that it is very appropriate for sharing here with my Oz family. Forgiveness does not alway lead to a healed relationship. Some people are not capable of love and it might be wise to just let them go along with your anger. Just wish them well and take care of yourself. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 22, 2012 Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Wish I had a " like " button to push ;-) I think it's very appropriate for this group & also very true.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I like this. A friend of mine who happens to be a counselor for children told me several years ago that a person cannot give what they don't have. My nada cannot love, encourage, understand, etc. if she doesn't even have those things in her heart to begin with. I'm learning to stop expecting them to appear. > > This post was going around on Facebook today and I thought that it is very appropriate for sharing here with my Oz family. > > Forgiveness does not alway lead to a healed relationship. > > Some people are not capable of love and it might be wise to just let them go along with your anger. > > Just wish them well and take care of yourself. > > C > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 This resonates with me too. That's pretty much what I wrote to my mother/my nada when I decided to go No Contact with her. I sent her a very brief letter wishing her well, wishing her success with her decision to go into therapy, but letting her know that I needed a " time out " from our relationship. On some level I think I realized that there truly was no hope of change and that the No Contact would be permanent, but I wanted to cut myself off from my mother in as gentle and kind a way as possible. -Annie > > I like this.
