This was a great read! Thank you for your vulnerability. I could resonate with a lot of your story. God’s timing is so perfect! My problem is sometimes I get in Gods way and try to force shit but the lessons and experiences are always valuable!

Thank you so much for reading and commenting! I agree 100% when I try to jump in and control things by forcing shit to go one way, either through magic work or forced action it only delays the process and I end up learning valuable lessons. Life is more enjoyable as you learn from the lessons and take your time with how you react to the changes. I think my biggest lesson right now from my experience is patience. The word itself triggers me at times.

“But we infest people’s homes with our strong family bond and unconditional love for each other that surprisingly triggers the parents we reach out to for help.”

This!!! I am a single mother with two children and it’s the same for us. People are literally triggered and intimidated by our strong bond. It took me a while to see it for what it is, but it’s so real.

My love goes to you and your family. I am in a loving situation that echoes a lot of what you’re writing about here. I know it has happened to help me with through certain fears, and break me away from my family of origin now for good

Whew, this right here is why I share my story. I’m sorry to hear that our stories are reflections of each other, however, I am happy that we found each other to be a support. As mothers, we are doing our job of nurturing and loving our babies and it is disheartening to see how it triggers our bloodline.

That’s why we are the ones to do it, we are very family-focused and it’s hard to understand why others don’t feel the same. But this is our gift our purpose and from experience walking away from that family origin was the best thing I could have done for my family.

Sending you so much love and a big hug!

Thank you so much!!! Hug received, and sending you hugs and love too. Keep doing this beautiful work. We are actually literally changing the world, and no longer have the time for those who resent us for feeling like we deserve something better for ourselves and future generations.

Love to you and your family as you make these transitions. May your love together online grow stronger 🙏🏾🤗🤗🤗

Thank you for speaking to the pivot journey + capturing it perfectly. It was if I read my inner emotions and the things that have weighed on my heart on paper.

Whew! Those pivots can be so hard 😮‍💨.

"I did not ask for this life but now I see why I was assigned to this life." I felt this! It makes me think of my journey, all the highs and lows and the days I would ask God why. But I'm also reminded that it probably took all of that to get me here.

Thank you for sharing your story. 🩷
