Found one of my school's tapes-- from a musical:

Even heroes sometimes can't sleep
Nobody around to comfort you
Sometimes you just can't find your peace
Even a hero cries sometimes

And the day grinds through the night
Grinds everything you've seen
Between enormous millstones
With your brain caught in between

The night is meant for the thinking ones
Stuck in a loop, they're forced to think
You think that you're thinking, but you're making no sense
And that's what you keep thinking about, you think

But then the new day arrives
Smell of bacon & eggs on bread
And the sun, the sun, the sun will shine
Gleam on the fork that's in your hand

I feel like I am 16 again, and not in the good, young, way. I feel the emotionally beat down way that only a mother can deliver to her child. Sorry I did not get in touch with you Frieda. The trip was, for the most part, great. My mom making (ok I chose to feel like this) me feel guilty, and like her least favorite child sucked.

I know now why I moved out as soon as I graduated from highschool, and never looked back. I thought this trip would bring us closer together, but it only made me realize why I got out of her home as soon as I did.

No wonder I have decided not to have kids.

O.k. This might be a tad harsh, but I am on the feelings thread. Everything will be fine tomorrow. Thanks for reading my bullshvt.

Klynne - ditto. We must have the same script in a small way. Today I was feeling all day like I wish my mother would have at least been a little interested in being a "girlfriend" type mom. But she punished me for trying to share feelings, for having an outlook or opinion. For trying to draw emotionally near. Or for talking more than a few seconds at a time to talk about the things I found fascinating. She rewarded me for disappearing, not making any demands of her and for being that agreeable, supporting "friend" she felt at ease with. I have accepted that she can't understand another way. That little bit I just said took thirty years and a bit of therapy to figure out. I love my mom a lot, but its pretty painful being around her.

So, if it helps, you aren't alone. Sorry for getting on your wavelength. What you wrote helps me to know a few other women also struggle with their own mom issues. It helps me to know I'm not alone.

aw, i'm sorry your trip didn't turn out the way you hoped-- hope you feel better soon!

(and pixie cherries too of course, except for the trip part)

lukkucairi · 10-20-2007, 01:08 PM

Klynne and Pixie, you guys make me feel like I'm not alone.

My mom is pretty problematic. Therapy's helped, but interacting with her is exhausting. I've accepted that she is how she is, but that doesn't make it easier.

Tony Soprano: This is gonna sound stupid, but I saw at one point that our mothers are... bus drivers. No, they are the bus. See, they're the vehicle that gets us here. They drop us off and go on their way. They continue on their journey. And the problem is that we keep tryin' to get back on the bus, instead of just lettin' it go.
