For my friend, a prayer

People take life so seriously! And then they wonder why they keep getting such serious sh!t happening to them. My mother was one of those people who basically forced her children into rebellion with her her domineering ways and fearful thinking. I was once arrested because the guys I was riding around with decided to break into a liqour store. I've got a scar on my head from the billy club my big mouth invited. I once stole my mother's car and was involved in a hit and run accident, etc, etc, etc. We all survived the ordeal that spanned so many years, but I am so thankful I never had to go through that with my children. It actually p!sses my mother off a little bit that I was 'spared' that kind of behavior from my kids. But I didn't treat my kids the way she treated hers. I always encouraged them to think for themselves, and to make their own choices and decisions, in fact, my attitude towards them was always that I had more to learn from them then they had to learn from me. People attract to themselves the exact conditions that match their vibration. You're tainting your own vibration when you empathize or sympathize with them. I believe that the best way to 'help' others is to live your own life seeking and experiencing joy, that way you set a good example.

Awww so sorry to hear about the troubles your friend is going through Deea. That must be tough having to deal with all of that. She'll be in my prayers.

that daughter is completely out of control and needs to be placed in jail or a social service group home or something like that, it would be for her own good to get away from that crowd that she is with

I think our children getting into trouble in their teens is some our of worst fears. I have an 18 year old that got in some trouble a while back. Nothing as major as what you have described, but I told him then that once you get in the system, its really difficult to get out and he has been good ever since, but I still have two that are up and coming and I pray everyday that they make the right choices. All we can do is give them the tools and hope that they use them wisely. I will keep your friend in my prayers along with you Deea who is doing as much worrying about your friend as she is worrying about her child.
