Wow, quite incredible
The big picture - I learned the healing properties of viewing life this way a while back also. Not at your young age however. Your wisdom and embrace of new, priceless additions to the family fabric are very heartening Symphony. Best wishes for it all to work out well.

3:23 pm, Symphony, mid-afternoon
I've got a huge duvet that my boyfriend is allergic to that I'm going to try to wash to get the dander out. I hate to give it up. I've goten to used to down, it's hard to imagine giving it up and going back to regular blankets. But it is giving himi running eyes and nose. I guess the next step may be to try a hypoallergenic cover before we switch to synthetics altogther. TVBlogger mentioned one at a store called Bed, Bath and Beyond, which is good, I have a discount coupon theree.

Same to you, Symphony, I am determined to do the same and take all
the good, the bad and the ugly and make the experiences helpful and meaningful. It seems like you're doing that for your brother, as well. Have a lovely day. I'm off to do laundry!

Tanga ....I totally believe in that 'saying'...and hope that I can help you
as much as I can possibly do so....you are free to email me anytime.
I too had an awful past....from the age of around 7.
I use to be a very bitter person...so many negative things kept happening that I found myself wallowing in self-pity...
it was only when I found this site that I saw how others wrote away their lifes...like they were somebody else peering into it...that I thought I would try it for myself....and am so glad I did...because not only do you off load it...you get love and support from others all around the world....it has helped me a great deal to move on from my past.......I have wrote about everything that has ever happened in my life time somewhere in this blog....I feel like I have become a better person for it.....I even like myself....still learning to love myself though.....but all in good time.

I don't even know how I would react. Just remember, none of this is either the fault of the woman or the children. Your brother did something that wasn't so great, but the end results could prove to be wonderful. Just stay open minded.

Symphony, I know exactly what you mean, I want to be a counselor, too
Only I am trying to find my own path, and not be a "so, how does that make you feel", pointy-headed kind of therapist, one who doesn't really have a clue how to help someone because they can't help themselves to be fully human and alive.
There's no certification or licensing required to be a therapist here in the state of Washington, but I need training, not like a social worker, who helps people with their day to day problems of living, like payng the light bill or getting a place to live. I want to use poetry, journaling, and writing to help people the way they've helped me, to sort out my thougts and emotions.
Emotions can be overwhelming, but they're real. I pretty much came to the same conclusion that you did, about not being bitter. I remember a friend saying to me once, "Being bitter is a choice" and I realized that it's not a good one, it eats you up. So, that and my faith in God, tells me that even though I can't see the whole picture, I'm only a piece of it, and that it's all workinig out.
You would be the best therapist ever, you have so much wisdom and heart.

Wow
Shocking news. I enjoyed your last comment very much. As I know you have added me as your favourite so you will be reading my story and I am happy for that. You might be able to give me some support to get over what I need to get over. I had quite a sad past that is now bothering me tremendously and I need to get it sorted so I can live my life. It all started when I was 11 and I am turning 30 this year. Sad how life treats some people and what one has to deal with but what not kills you makes you stronger, hey!

Thanks ever so much Blanche01 ....I really want to be a councellor...
I would love to help those in need...I want to study socialology...and learn as much as I can....if I could give out all that I can...I would feel so very satisfied with my own life....does that even make sense? sometimes I say that to myself and feel selfish....but I truly want to reach out to others and help them understand the trauamas in their own life.....and move on from them...just as I have!
its been a long road ...a very long life (I am on 26), but I have learned from everything that has ever happened to me...I use to be such a bitter person and never could see...what I guess I was meant to see to move on....now with every brick wall that hits me...I brush myself down and carry on...the best I know how....yes sometimes things take longer...sometimes I dwell longer than a week....but the mian thing is...I am able to move on eventually and look back and see what I achieved by doing so....
Life isn't meant to be simple...if it were....what would we have learned?

Symphony, it took me a long time to get that through my head, too,
That for every bad thing, there is a positive side. It does take a lot of processing for me to find it, and sometimes there's often pain and sadness, but it's all part of the package. You're a wise soul, Symphony. If you do study psychology, maybe you could be a counselor or therapist, you have the empathy, compassion, and heart for it. Otherwise, who knows. I'm still figuring it out.

Thank you ever so much for your comment Blanche01 ....
life is defeniatly a mystery....I have found that out at quite a young age...but I have also found out that with every bad...there becomes a good...sometimes it takes me a while to find the good though....but I do enjoy analising things...I want to do phycology...maybe I can understand things a lot better or quicker if I studied it.
but then I guess some answers in life...you're not meant to know.......thanks again for your comment - Take care...

Symphony, after reading both posts, I wonder where you get the strength
to deal with this woman. How anyone could be so mean as to keep their kids away from their father, unless he was a truly terribler person, which you know your bother was not, is a mystery to me. The kids are being deprived of a part of their identity.
I can understand how your mother feels, I'd probably feel the same, finding out what his girlfriend did. I would have a terrible time forgiving that, even though I believe in my heart of hearts that forgivenss is the only path to peace, sometimes forgiveness doesn't mean, that what that person did was all right, but merely that it's done and over
Now, you've got another facet or aspect of your brother's life, another mystery to come to terms with, but life is a mysterious journey, isn't it?
