“I want compassion from my mother, but she can’t be compassionate with me. still, I love her, I love her, I love her. after all, she is my mother.”

“when I became a mother, I could no longer turn away from the pain. how could my parents do that to me? how could my mother have thought it was okay? how could my father so easily turn away? I would do anything to protect my child from emotional and physical pain. why didn’t my parents feel the same?”

“my mother didn’t want to hurt me, but she was broken. her brokenness cut into me and made me bleed. she didn’t know how to love, or at least how to love me. it didn’t even matter that she hurt me; I just wanted her to be sorry.”
