How I did it: My father passed away and I wasn't really close to my mother at the time. I had to let go all of that frustration and anger and learn to let them in. After 3 and a half years of holding a grude against my father when he passed away I felt soooooo guilty all I could do is grow closer to my family thats left. Read how I did it…

It’s so sad that they don’t understand my depression due to trauma when I was a little…I know it’s impossible to make them understand. I know I have to overcome by myself because I’m already an adult.

My older brother got back from the abroad. I’m really releaved about my parents that I’m not the only one to take care of them. Thanks brother.
... forgiving does not mean I have to like them. I will do this for me. I want to find my freedom and let go of the anger and the negativity I have towards them. I hope I can do this soon…
shemyaisland is so happy BO is the new president!
i have already stopped speaking to them and still my father finds little ways to sneak in additional hurt and pain. sometimes i wonder if my death will bring more peace to them or me.

Today I had a good conversation with my dad, for once. No fighting, no bitterness, just us…talking. I’ve realized that in order for us to have any type of relationship, I have to let go of the past. Today made me feel as if he’s finally letting go, too. I hope that we are finally taking the right steps to fix our broken relationship.

Thank you for having me on this day of *years ago.
Thank you for raising me.
You both did worked so hard for my big brother while he’s been a serious sick since he was born to teenager. He is alive because you both did care him so much.
But I still cannot forget huge lonliness when I was little.
Anyway thank you & happy birthday to me.

Tommorrow might be kinda one step chance ahead to the goal.
Tommorrow is my birthday.
If they didn’t get marrige, I wasn’t born.
They nursed me, worked hard to raise me.
Hoping tommow is the day that I could appreciate my parents for my birth.

I’m going to drop this from my list because I don’t see how its achievable. I either don’t understand, or agree, with the notion of forgiveness. I’ve come to the conclusion that my parents are who they are. Do I “forgive” them for this fact? Does forgiveness even have anything to do with it?
Alright. My new goal is: accept my parents (and everyone else). Learn what forgiveness is and means.

...I can do that, it’ll be easy to love myself. But how???
