[QUOTE="LetGo, post: 766270, member: 33482"] Hello everyone! I think it must be the time of year but I find myself thinking of my daughter more frequently. Historically, she made Thanksgiving a difficult time for all of us over the years. I could write a novella just about Thanksgiving antics. Since she was young, she always felt wherever she was at, in that moment, was like "being in prison". In her mind she was held captive by someone or some circumstance. The prison was within herself. Unfortunately, now she really is in prison and I wonder how she is faring. My guess would be, mixed, as with everything else in her life. She probably hates it, blames someone else for her being there, yet finds the structure beneficial. So when I think about it, probably not much has changed. I feel sad for her and need to stop blaming myself for the change that I could not help bring about in her. That's up to her. I just need to go on living my life, which is a good one, full of family, friends and joyful times. If I don't post here again this week, you are a very special group that gets where I am at. So thankful I found you. Happy Thanksgiving! [/QUOTE]
