Hey Jayy!! LOL@the comment you left me earlier this week. I know I've been MIA, but your post is right on time! I guess in some ways, I've recently been held hostage in my own little bubble of my mom issues. My mom and I are having a tough time getting along lately and as much as I want to hold on to the way things used to be, I've come to know that I can only change me. I can't continue to hold on and wallow in the past anymore. It's making me get all depressed and I don't wanna continue on that road. So I'm gonna visit her tomorrow and take it one step at a time... 8:38 PM, May 12, 2007 MsJayy said... Girl, I keep telling ya'll I got co-nnec-shuns. Don't make me use them to track ya down. I had to weigh the cost of being mired in someone else's mess, living my life per their specs and my happiness. My happiness won out. If that makes me selfish, oh well. Just got back from my moms & we had a few moments it a few rough spots but I flipped the convo to something pleasant & we had an enjoyable visit. You're right - you can only change you. One step at a time. That's the only way to do it. Keep ya head up!! 9:42 PM, May 12, 2007 Shai said... Jackie, you are blessed I cannot even talk to my moms. She is into church and her chuch folks. I just was over my grandma's and we both shake our head at how my mom disses us. We love and will continue to be concerned. She is who she is. I like your comment about rising above the real and imagined you have inspired me to a new level. 9:50 PM, May 12, 2007 MsJayy said... Shai, that's true re: people being who they are. None of us is capable of changing another person - it's hard enough changing ourselves. LOL Yeah, I had to learn to let go of somethings, learn to make peace with them as best I can & keep it moving. It's not always easy but I'm determined not to get stuck in someone else's baggage. Life's too short. Liberation ain't easy but shaking loose some of those ghosts sure feels good. Happy Mother's Day!! 10:02 PM, May 12, 2007 UnKnownDiva said... i did try to leave a comment earlier and i thought it posted but i guess not... anywho...just wanted to say thanks for the mother's day wishes!!! btw excellent post....the comments are deep too!!! 8:08 PM, May 13, 2007 MsJayy said...
