[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 710492, member: 18958"] [U]I as her mother had nothing left to give her.[/U] [I][U][/U][/I] I am revisiting this post by wisernow, of several weeks ago. A post which is very wise indeed. [I]Perhaps think of yourselves as mothers to young girls . Would you do your best to protect them, bathe them, nourish them, hold them, love them? Of course you would. I think your souls are calling out to you both, begging please take care of me, please love me again, please wrap your heart and spirits around me and hold me close. You see, the diversion of what has happened with our sons, causes us to lose that very basic sense of ourselves...it eats us up, again and again because WE allow it. We allow ourselves to be demonized, cast aside, and as we become weaker we allow ourselves to be devoured by their demons! [U]Take back your strength, your soul. Fight for it as hard as you have been fighting for your sons![/U] Perhaps you will see that as you become stronger...so will they! When you fight for yourself...you are also fighting for them. This is a battle for your life and theirs. But you must reclaim your life first. Because they are part of us and always will be....they become weak when we do...and they gain strength when we can model the way. [/I] I would argue even more strongly: I think we try to substitute ourselves to be devoured by their demons, as if to spare them. It does not work. We cannot live another person's life. Even that of our beloveds. [I][/I] [/QUOTE]
