my father & stepmother -
they deliberately set out to hurt me, as often as possible..
& while i don't take on that anger anymore, because well - i just don't want to and simply won't play their dirty games back to them.. i am mature & do care and have love for them, as people who have been in my life for well.. my whole life..

But, what makes me sad, is their need to do this to me.. & need to ridicule and to try and lower my esteem.. They're not being supportive of the positive changes i am making..& when i think about this deeply, i realize it's because they're unhappy in their own lives. Not an excuse, of course.

But, no matter how mean spirited they can be, i'll continue to wish for happiness for them, some peace & to be gentle with themselves.. i distance them for my own well-being - but still want well for them..
