So today was a rough day.
I relived my past.
Maybe I wanted to.
I was talking to my cousin and we got on the subject of church.
Which got on the subject of Denis.
Without even thinking I blurted out the question "do you know what happened between my mom and Denis and why they split?"
When he answered "no" I could not stop myself from pretty much spilling my guts.
For a minute it just felt so good to tell someone.
Not everything that I went through or witnessed but telling someone how much I was angry and how bad it left me hurting for years.
I know it sounds bad but revealing these things to him for the first time (so he says) left me with the great satisfaction of his views of Denis changing.
I feel guilty for that.
That wasn't right of me nor was is Christian of me.
I forgive him, I forgave him.
But feeling like that has made me sort of doubt my "forgiveness".
I mean, does the fact that I felt that way mean that I haven't forgiven him?
I don't hold on to anything.
I haven't held on to anything.
Am I contridicting myself?
Forgive and forget, that's impossible.
I can't ever forget.
Talking about it make my heart pound out of my chest and my hands drip with sweat.
My knees turn to rubber, I can't breathe, my vision blurs and my eyes instantly make tears.
My mouth, as dry as a desert.
It's like someone replaying the same record over and over.
Sounds is never forget.
Screams, cries, whips, yells, bangings.
Ugh.
I wish I could forget.
A lot of people say that your past makes you who you are today.
Sometimes I wonder what I'd be like if I never experienced these things.
Or if my life was different.
Reliving these emotions make me question who I am today.
Sometimes idk who I am or what I'm doing.
I've allowed this to affect what relationships I have.
My inability to keep friendships.
Me, wanting to make and keep them, but me totally failing at it.
The only relationships I know are real and mutual are that of my husband and my son.
well, I guess I'm not doing so bad, huh?
