I have survived my mother. After almost 40 years, I have walked away from that relationship. My mother can be the most wonderful woman in the world when she chooses to wear that face, but my mother can also be unbelieveably cruel. I can't even begin to describe how sad I feel, but the odd thing is that along with the sadness, I feel like an anvil has been lifted from my back.
Mom, I forgive you for being unable to break the cycle. I forgive you for all of it.
