Unwanted by MOM









Who are you?
I am the one who hates you.
I am the one who didn't want you.
I am the one who wanted to get rid of you.
I am the one who doesn't love you.
I am the one who won't give you a happy life.
I am the one who won't give you a safe place to live.

What do you want from me?
I want you out of my life.
I want you to stay away.

What do you want to give me?
Absolutely nothing.I have no intention to teach you anything you need in your life.

Is there anything else you'd like to say to me?
If I had known how to abort my pregnancy, you wouldn't be here.

Rita, you are dealing with some powerful emotions and subjects and I congratulate you on putting them out there. I read all of your prose and was quite startled and fascinated. In my opinion, true art is meaningful and courageous and your work certainly is that.

One question and only since English is not your first language. I am wondering if you mean "life" rather than "live" in several of your messages?

I hope this baby finds a loving home. A home where it is wanted and cherished for who she/he is.
I hope the baby in the picture will not be able to have to live with the knowlege of having been unwanted and despised.
Powerful expression through art is a wonderful tool, however when the emotions are likely to destroy another human beings chancees of a fair start in life, then I am very concerned about the wellbeing of both parties. I hope you are finding professional help with the issues which may be troubling you.
Just publishing them online may not be enough to resolve such deep and dark feelings

Anonymous,
Deleted my second comment it the same as the first one. That baby represents me, the 'queen' left my mom. I am dealing with it very well.

About 16 years ago I broke all my ties with my family and choose for my husband and kid. Now kids.

A few years later I thought it all over again, and decided that I wanted to leave as it was. There was no possibility that she would change in what so ever.

In the beginning it was difficult.
Now it is a part of my past.

Professional help? All professional help I know here in the Netherlands are no help at all. And I know it I had a lot to do with them.

Thanks for your thoughts.
Every one thanks for the thoughts.

Love and hugs,

Rita

That was beautiful. I thought about every line of it because it dealt with strong emotion... which I can relate to!

Rita,

I found my way here from NewMoon and I agree with the others here - this is a powerful card. It reminds me of the work I did growing my internal mother.

I used the tape from Clarissa Pinkola Estes -
Warming the Stone Child: Myths & Stories About Abandonment and the Unmothered Child

It was a slow painful process - but as I replaced the mothering, smothering, abandonment issues of my "real" mother with the nurturing internal mother - I began to mend.

Much love on your journey and I am touched with your courage to show your raw vulnerable side with this card.
