Over the years when friends would talk to me about family I would just, ROLL MY EYES......... To me my family was as good as dead. What I didnt know was how much I was missing out. What I didnt know is that thing I have been looking for I was looking for in all the wrong places. There is a very specific nutrient of Unconditional Love that can only come from parents & family. Over the last few days I have been moved to tears countless times.... Watching my father get up from hit chair to serve me.... and to see the joy on his face... words cant describe that. Allowing him to LOVE me and show how much he CARES about me. I have denied myself and him the pleasure of LOVing each other. Watching my mother cook for me and call me to see how my day is going after I left home early in the morning..... NOTHING NOTHING in the world can replace that direct communication to the heart. The sense of reassurance that LIFE is OK, that I am doing this LIFE with so many amazing family caring about my well being and success. WOW I have been rocked back into life. I got to meet my nieces and nephews children. Yes, I am one of 12 kids and my grandmother has more then 500 great grend-children. So many years have passed since I left home, most of them I have never met. .... running toward freedom ....... how beautiful it is to find that in running away I left some of the most precious parts of me behind. Today, I get to let that LOVE in, I get to let my parents marvel in the answering of their prays, to know and to love their lost Son. Today I get to let myself be a Mothers & Fathers Child and still celebrate everything that I have BECOME from that day that I started running away to FIND MYSELF.
