Family Scars run deep in my family. |
I remember when I was little a lot of people said my family was cursed. It was a strange thing for a child to hear. It was attributed to the amount of sadness and accidents and death my grandmother endured with her family and together with the guilt of my mothers family, I guess it consolidated with a grand mess.
What a learning curve of life to be born into the family I am as we are all tarred with some of this pain and guilt and we all appear to be trying to free ourselves.
Tomorrow is Matilda's birthday. She is my eldest daughter, sadly she is estranged from our lives. It is always a tough time when this part of the year is approaching, many memories of near death and hard core issues that I faced during that time of my life are rekindled. Smile many say, its just another day on planet Earth.
There is no other way but head on for me, I don't know how to dance!
