So glad you took time to heal and then found your voice again when we’re ready. I experienced the same scenario with my father just last night and cut off contact again for the last time. I recommit to only allowing uplifting and nurturing connections into my life.

I’m done wondering if someone who was born with less empathetic brain wiring plus was damaged by deep wounding childhood will ever treat me with love and respect. He is just not capable of doing so, there is a finality to this awareness which is necessary.
