Re: Temple, because I stayed too long, I had to crawl away with my jewels

Abuelita... I should say madre

, I know you are right, and I think and plan and pray to the universe and the Great Spirit for guidance ... but seeing my way, making my way out is a way out is a whole different thing. I am so desperate to find a way to leave, but the practical things get in the way ... a way to support myself, a place to live (he ruined by credit and I don't know if I can rent an apartment). I am planning, but I am so scared I am stuck here. I gave so much, too much, because I thought I had to, and now I am too sick and stressed out to do what I need to at the pace I need to ... I don't mind reading what you wrote me, hearing from you and how you say it touches my heart. Sooner also means better for my health in less obvious ways, and yes, no more Broken Ones. Only fully assembled models from now on.

Temple, because I stayed too long, I had to crawl away with my jewels

in my pockets.....your jewels are your cats and you should crawl away soon, I think.

I always hate to tell anyone what to do, but danger dances in your home and you must refuse to dance to its music anymore.

I crawled away a few times from a few places and people, and tried to not Find the Broken Ones to Heal anymore, finally controlling that urge with age, with emotional exhaustion.

I left everything a few times and that hurt, but was necessary, as I kept bringing home the wounded. Plan and then execute the leaving plan, begin today.

Be safe and love them from afar, pray for them from afar and put them in god's hands.

go, hija, soon.......

and I know that you don't want to read that, can't imagine how to do it, but it is possible and you will go eventually, safer means sooner.
