❤️Confronting the Past "Not Today Dad"
crying, . . .
fearing for my life, . .
hearing my dad threatening to kill us, . . .
being afraid as a kid, never calling the police, . . .
month after month, . . . . and year after year, nothing. . .
changing, one day, my awakening, hearing my father,
calling my mother such abhorrent names, so . . .
trying to calm him down, asking him, . . .
doing what I never did before, . . .
saying simply two words, repeating, . . .
again and again, simply saying, "not today"
looking directly, deeply, eye to eye, smiling. . . .
mind to mind combat, relaxing, calmly, . .
preparing to permanently end him, . . .
. . . .

seeing the impossible, my dad becoming fearful,
looking down, confused, intimidated, shaken, . . .
leaving thy house, driving off, returning later, . . .
never again, dad being violent, me,
yelling: "NOT TODAY!"
seeing him being. . .
scared of . . .
me . . .
. . .

A geographical map could take you there. To the places I've been, to the sights I've seen, to the landscapes I've climbed. But no compass could point you in the direction of my memories. To the experiences I've lived, to the happiness I've felt, to the wonder I've held so close to my heart.

What strength and bravery that must have taken as a son! You say, "Forgive." It's not always easy, but you're the better person for it. 💜

This must have been tough to write
Hopefully you beat the devil even now. Good job.
