WHAT MY MOTHER AND I DON’T TALK ABOUT
It was not until my father passed in December 2017 that I became aware that I had some unknowingly suppressed, unspoken, not so good feelings and thoughts about my mom. It was completely unexplainable why this was revealing itself at that time, but I started to see certain behaviors and patterns in my mother that I resented/judged, present in me. I also began to see her as a woman, a person, no longer through the eyes of a child, who only saw her as mommy, but a woman who lived her life and made decisions that I was not aligned with.
