Today my mother came up stairs to talk to Rachel, Abby, and I. She told us how she felt about the whole "dad" situation. I am not going to get into the details, but let us just say it did not go well. I asked my mom if she really apologized to my dad for the faults she had made. "I am sorry for my mistakes, but you need to..," is NOT apologizing. That is exactly how she apologizes though. Is that right? I do not believe it is. I told her this and she responded saying I was just like my father. So this man she is talking so horribly about is me...
Was I really wrong here? Is it right to tell a person what they need to work on when apologizing for the things you have done wrong?
I am lost,
Emily

oh hun...you are beautiful.
wow i can relate to the pain you are feeling. I can't believe you have the strength to even write about all you are going through. you are so strong! girls like us (who have dads that have failed us, and hurt us) have a very difficult time growing up feeling confident and loved because of what our dads did.
PLEASE do me a favor and read captivating!! it is an incredible book that allows you to understand your soul as a beautiful woman of christ. it reveals why we are the way we are =) this book will changed your outlook and make you see that you are not horrible-like you dad...like you had said.
don't give up, hold onto hope. cling to your Father, and bring your true soul to him and share your sorrows. he will draw near to you! if you ever need to chat to someone who like totally feels your pain, let me know! im here!!
