Hi Ami
Yes, bad luck that we had those parents: but good luck in so many other ways? Like having been here? and more.

No I haven't been here the whole 5 years, I've taken a few breaks, and haven't really been here until now (reading or posting) for ages.

It's taken me a very long time to see it with my heart (what great words Ami). In some ways I've been lucky in that some very awful aspects have been somewhat pushed in my face, made it hard for me to ignore them or explain/excuse them away. Accurate seeing is speeded up, perhaps.

Still getting to grips with the effects on victims i think. Still finding aspects of myself that are Work In progress in a big way. Learning never stops I guess!

Dear Portia
  I know that the utter desperation and despair of my life made me look upward and find God.
 I am so glad you are posting, Portia!     XXXOO Ami

Ami,
desperation and despair sound familiar to me, and I found this board, thank goodness.
I'm happy that you're glad that I'm posting, and I'm curious as to why you're glad, but then, I'm curious about many things!

Well, I can answer that Portia. You have a wisdom and experience on working through N that is more than I have and I appreciate your posts. I have particularly appreciated your comments to me b/c you helped me to see things in a new light.

Ah Ami
I know nothing and your posts have helped me enormously (for a very long time, remember my doctor story?); I have perceived much wisdom in things you have said...and that is the way I think it might work here, for me at least - we read and understand what we are able to 'see' at any given time. If you 'see' wisdom in any words from me, it is your own wisdom doing the seeing, i think. Well I think so. Maybe I have lots of experience here, if it's measured in time. But perhaps time has nothing to do with it. Things tend to happen in their own 'time' i guess.

What is your doctor story, Portia? I understand what you are saying about your own development having to be at a certain place BEFORE you can even see what another person is saying. You are right. I never looked at it that way but it is true.        Ami

the truth is in us - I think so.
I remember you said something that stopped me spiralling down at the time - you diverted my attention - and that was very helpful. If you would like a reminder of your words, I'll PM you - bye for now x (hubby needs the computer, or I would stick around right now)

Ok Portia. That would be wonderful. My guitar teacher told me that everyone can be used by God and if I was used , my heart feels joyful. Thank you, Portia.            Ami
