This is so well written! I feel like mothers are very difficult to understand at times. As kids we grow up idolising our parents, but as we age we begin to see through everything. Thank you for sharing this 💙
Where are so many people white-knucking it through life? I used to wonder as a child walking the store, 'Why so many gloves? Why don't people just put their hands in their pockets (excepting the fact that women are woefully unserved in the pocket area, but that's a whole other topic), but now I get it
Sounds like you’ve really found a way to break free from the pattern, which is an incredible journey. Learning from our parents' mistakes can be a painful but powerful lesson. It’s about understanding where they came from and using that wisdom to create a better path forward
This was such an amazing read. It’s fascinating how much we see the bigger picture with context and nuances as we grow older.
Wow Emily. Such a powerful piece. I love that you can dance with your daughter in the sun and know you won <3
