Don’t create another victim,
(I hear)
Oh, but it’s hard, you see,
She’s a part of me and
her pain holds me
firmly, too,
the roles are reversed,
I should be in her place
but I’m trying my best
and that’s all I can do

God bless you my friend, and stay strong
Thanks so much, Scott, I’m really trying…
Hang in there and stay strong, Lauren. Trust in the Lord with all your heart!
Blessing and prayers always. xoxo
Thanks so much, Deb, I’m trying to do both and I always appreciate the prayers. Hugs and love to you…
Know you have lots of support standing with you. Hugs, j
Thanks, Jean, I appreciate that very much..hugs back…
Sending much love Lauren; being a parent is so hard sometimes; nothing prepares us for this type of trial. Sending big hugs ❤️ Xxx
Thanks, Chris, last night was a little tough and I probably shouldn’t have written this…but I think if there are more prayers or positive thoughts then it’s worthwhile. You’re right about parenthood and trials like these, but there are good days, too, and today has been better…I appreciate all of your hugs very much, too! ♥ xo
Very evocative and powerful words Lauren. Hugs to you.
Thanks so much, Geraldine. I appreciate your kind words and hugs…xo
Hugs! ❤
Thanks, Iris, the more hugs the better…:) ♥
Nice one… Good game of opposites… From balance, Truth comes!.
Best wishes, Lauren, Aquileana 😛
Thanks for your kind comment, Aquileana, and your well wishes, too. 🙂 ♥
big hugs my friend. ♥ Renee
Thanks so much, Renee…it was another tough night and I just felt like talking about it…♥
Sending you love and hugs.
Thanks, Michelle, I appreciate them very much…♥
Life will never leave us short of challenges and hurts but there is one who as the ultimate substitute can bring us comfort in our trials.
You’re right, Ian, and thanks for your beautiful reminder…last night wasn’t so good, but today was better, so one day at a time..
Life always gives us challenges, whether we want them or not.
It sure does, Binky…and some really tug at the heart, too..
HUGS and I know you will rise to meet challenges as you are a strong woman, Lauren!
Thanks for the hugs, Christy, and you know I will. Sometimes are harder than others, but then there are good times, too…♥
You shared a lot of anger and frustration. You expressed your pain very well. Stay positive and hopeful.
Thanks, Kim, I simply wrote from the heart, nothing fancy, but it was a tough week and I just felt like writing…
Reverse emotions in those words I sense Lauren.
Do hope all is well with you, and you have love and happiness around you.

Thanks, Ian, there is much love and happiness, but there is sadness, too, that we’re trying to live and deal with…I normally don’t write so openly, but it was a tough week and I guess I just felt like it. I appreciate your comment and compassion, though, and have a lovely weekend.
Sometimes Lauren as I read between your lines here.. I know it can be more tough being a parent. We would sooner change places I know any day .. We can feel so helpless when we are unable to help.. Yet you are strong.. And you are a rock needed .. And every rock at times can crumble to emotion.. So its good to let out our feelings.. And share them.. You are far from alone.. and we are always here..
Love to you Lauren.. and Healing thoughts sent out.. x Sue ❤
Your comment almost brought me to tears, Sue, thank you…I know I’m only human and will crumble at times and most of the time, I’m strong. Last month was tough, along with the beginning of this month, which surprised us all. Long story and I won’t go into it here; not sure if I’ve told you. Anyway, it was all so raw and you could say that this was an “emotional binge write!” 🙂 Things are better now, but it’ll be a rocky road for an indefinite amount of time..thanks again for sharing your love and wise words as a good friend, along with your healing thoughts. Those are always welcome. Hugs back to you! ♥ xo
Lauren you did share a little of your concerns some time back and I am guessing your worries are on the same lines in regards to this.. Hence my sending you all..But I know you all have that inner strength to see you through .. And Positive thoughts bring about miraculous Energy.. Mega Hugs xxx
Thanks again, dear friend…love and blessings to you..♥ xo
Yes, it must be so hard, Lauren, but your loving spirit and faith will work miracles, I feel. Sending hugs and healing. XO ❤
Thanks, Diane…we have our good and bad times and this was after a bad time. I think this is called “binge writing” and right now all is good. 🙂 Your hugs, love and healing is welcomed, though, at any time. Hugs back! ♥
