I am grateful to the Almighty because this has been a blessed birthday.
I am a strong and capable woman and I have begun to release myself from the binds as of today. The older one texted me "happy birthday" with the intent to call me later. I said that I would be out and without a phone. No need for phony calls.
He had a gift for me. However his behavior last Saturday was filled with needling and bantering. I did not answer. He took me to a restaurant later in the week and was enraged when I asked him to leave the waitress an extra dollar. I chose not to receive his cards or gifts telling him that when he is even keeled I would open it.
What did I do for this birthday??? I walked and enjoyed the silence. I did some chores. I played with the dog. I kept to my sugarless diet. It was a beautiful day and I am proud to say that I felt release from the binds.
Finally at the end of the day I opened the cards and gift. If you persist on abusing the person what value is the gift? I moved on.
I feel that I have finally matured.
I am grateful to the Almighty for this.
Thank you.
