Yesterday, only the relative that I called about Maw had decided to call our land line. That auntie had the usual `impatient` and stern sound to her voice: `How is your mom?`
Tonight I called another auntie, whom the `in-laws` would never treat the same in respect. I know the feeling of being on the `other side`, or as the old soul had told me on Wednesday night – the `dark side`.
I told the boy that the `dark sides` don’t exist only as challenges to be overcome. I believe in second chances. I believe in moving forward. For those who refuses to change, they are hopeless.
Prayers won’t seem to work for these most stubborn of resentful and vindictive people. But we will see and only `God` knows. Maybe on their death bed will they see the light and ask forgiveness of those they misunderstood. You know who you are Shill, you faker.
The auntie I had called tonight is VERY intelligent, sincere and generous. She knows not to play to the level of unkind people. She too has been through much and I have her to thank for taking care of my paternal uncle, whose blood results improved.
So there you go. The frequencies of similar families will have come together. Those that have unhealthy relationships are separated for good reasons. Eventually, each will recognize each other for who they are – imperfect humans learning the hard way.
