[QUOTE="healinginside, post: 762635, member: 29962"] Glenna - Thank you so much and I absolutely love this! You are so right. Isn't it insane that Mother's can physically feel the pain of their children? It's the curse of motherhood. That it is somehow our job to carry that burden. But, I have to remember that he is not a child to be protected, but a man that lives a full and separate life from myself. I do not want to get to the end of my life and REGRET not taking the trip or going for that thing that I wanted to do (whatever that thing is) bc I put my life on HOLD waiting for my son to get his life together. The entire world was put on hold in 2020 and we all had to WAIT to do the things we wanted to do. We can't wait our lives away. The great thing about it was that it broke my normal walls down and gave me perspective on how crazy things had become at home. I was determined not to return the same person and I came back a much stronger person. And, I cannot carry this burden alone. Got to give it to God. I'm ready to jump in the water, again! Thank you!!
