Ali, You've grown so much in the last 11 years. You've become a light for others trapped in unhealthy relationships. It does take time to untangle our complicated psychology, but you have shown us what's possible.
Your personal history of relationship including your own recounting of family narcissism is true for many men and women.... especially today.
We all come from some measure of dysfunctional family. Some better. Some worse.
Including that story of recovery is always part of our own return to the authentic self we were born with and is so often taken away from us.
So many people cannot or will not make that resolution leap in their lifetimes because it often means alienation from the very people who were supposed to love us in the beginning. It takes Jesus Like strength and compassion to love them knowing it will not come back to us...but that we Understand them (another word for love though not spoken the same way) is powerful medicine for our own souls an those of our children. Namaste. Thomas
Hi Thomas, I deeply appreciated your well thought our comment. Returning to our authentic self is such a privilege. There is loneliness in healing though, right?
You define this perfectly, as I think there are a lot of people who are stuck in the quiet place for decades, if not a lifetime. It’s freeing and feels like gulps of fresh air to read about where you are today. It made me smile to read and it seems like a place where contentment resides.
Thank you Joy. I think you are right, I think there are far too many people feeling trapped in unhealthy relationships. And I can understand why. Hopefully, in time they will find the courage to leave. Thank you for leaving a comment and sharing your smiles.

Thank you Sandra, with a bit of work we get there in the end right?
Right!
