I think you should seek out affordable help in your community. Speaking with a trained individual will help you sort things out.<br /><br />I can tell you have a heart of gold. <br /><br />My life's motto is "Have No Regrets." Fix this if you can as soon as you can. Don't regret a missed opportunity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732287889338809458.post-82128294793939069732010-01-04T09:27:03.321-06:002010-01-04T09:27:03.321-06:00Jessica, as a dad of daughters only, I can't d...Jessica, as a dad of daughters only, I can't defend or understand your dad's treatment of you as you've described in your blog. A daughter is a precious gift from God and dads are idiots if they don't recognize that and take advantage of every opportunity to be with them and to nurture them.<br /><br />Please accept some fatherly and Christian advice. A father wound this deep will have a dramatic and devastating impact on your life, if you don't address it soon. <br /><br />You are not the one who needs to apologize for feeling the way you do. And nothing can be done to replace the time lost wishing for an appropriate father-daughter relationship. But God can heal all relationships. Give it time.<br /><br />I encourage you to reread your blog and, where appropriate, replace the words "I am sorry" with "I forgive you."<br /><br />Forgiveness will cleanse your soul and bring peace to your life. Failure to forgive is like drinking poison yourself in hopes of harming another person.<br /><br />You are right to be hurt by your earthly father's actions. You are right to want a loving relationship with your father. <br /><br />Until that is possible, I encourage you to take your pain and your anger to your heavenly father, who loves you always and will never foresake you or abandon you.<br /><br />In the meantime, here's a song that was written by a fellow Minnesotan several years ago. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ZU7haNwyHc<br /><br />GREG GERBER, www.iamadodo.comGreg Gerberhttp://www.iamadodo.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4732287889338809458.post-21111808651011907042010-01-03T15:55:53.336-06:002010-01-03T15:55:53.336-06:00Sugar I'm pretty sure you are misreading him. ...Sugar I'm pretty sure you are misreading him. I hope you are anyway. I know that people have probably told you this (if you have told any parents what you are thinking/feeling) but you will better understand it when you have kids. Thats no excuse for him to treat you poorly at all. Try to talk to him. He doesn';t hate you. He loves you y'all just have shit crossed up right now.<br /><br />Hope it gets better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
