Re: why can't I cope longer?

My dear owl friend @Former-Member .  I am so sorry about all the bad news which has hit you today.  Thats really rough. To be constantly hit with bad news is really really hard.  Sometimes I get that way that I come to expect all news to be bad, with seemingly never anything good happening.  But I know thats unrealistic.  Somewhere there is some good news, some good things happening.  Its so unfair that you are treated as you are by your family members.  I dont know why some people are the way they are.  It would be nice to change others sometimes, to make them better people.  I would do that to my sister if I could.  Some of the things she says and does is simply beyond my comprehension, I do not understand her at all I think.  If she were not my sister, I would not maintain any contact with her.  But she is family, and I guess I still love her as a sister.  The sister I would like her to be perhaps, rather than the person she really is?  There are certainly occasions where we are better off without some people, and sometimes that happens to be family members, other times ... friends or workmates.  Life is very unfair to many of us, and it seems thats the case for you.  Some people have everything, others very little.  But at the end of the day, its not material possessions which makes us happy.  I am sure there is nothing you could ever have done to deserve the treatment you receive, nothing can justify such unfair infliction of emotional pain on another human being, let alone a family member.  All you can do is be the good person you are, you dont have to be like them.  Be better than them.  

 

I am proud of you for still being able to see the beauty in life, despite what you have to endure. King parrots are splendid creatures.  And I am glad that you have clean fresh air and beautiful wild life where you are.  Concentrate on that, and not what you dont have .. ie family support and wealth.

 

Kindness and understanding coming your way.

Thank you @Former-Member, @outlander, @Adge... made me cry. I hope I'm not the horrible person their treatment deserves 😭

Re: why can't I cope longer?

definently not a horrible person @Former-Member Heart

Re: why can't I cope longer?

Hi @Former-Member How have you been?

You're a very good person, in my book.

It's so hard when people (especially relatives) judge us harshly, or refuse to talk to us calmly & sensibly.

I can never understand it.

One of my brothers thinks that I am dirt & manure, or speaks to me as if I am.

I only ever showed him kindness.

So, yes it does hurt, & it's not fair - for you or for anyone.

Thanks @outlander, you ok?
@Adge, that's horrible how your siblings have treated you. I've concluded that SOME PEOPLE SIMPLY HAVE A NEED TO HATE... and they find the easiest, cosest and most vulnerable target. Wonder if they'll ever learn that attacking others is an attack on hemselves... they carry so much poison.
Often when I'm overcome with heavy heart from the all, the Holy Spirit whispers to me. "They hate you because they first hated me..." and "your brethren all over the world suffer the same..." "Endure to the end..." ... ...
And so we must ride the waves of living grief as well as physical death, in the hope of heaven where there's no more tears ✝️
