Victimization
Posted: October 3, 2011 Filed under: Parenting, questions, Thoughts Leave a comment »
My parents were victims. My Dad shrugged it off (mostly) and moved on. My Mom never did. She lived a life of pain and depression, and shared her legacy of victimization.
She was a dream-killer, a spoil-sport, and a pessimist. She also had great love and in her desire to help herself, she helped many people. Unfortunately, she was never able to save herself.

I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t understand. I have images burned into my brain – that have wounded and scarred me to the core of my being. I’ve seen things that no caring person should ever have to see.
The other day, a cop friend of mine was talking about some of the things she has seen. She mentioned how they joke about using the MIB “flashy thing” when they retire – to erase all the things they’ve seen.
