After years of blaming everyone in my life for things that have happened, I finally realized that I am in control of my own destiny.
For a long time I blamed my father for abandoning me. He is an alcoholic, and has ben for about 40 years, and hes not changing. He is a violent and abusive drunk. My mom finally left him when I was about 2. I also blamed my father for not being in my life, but what would my life have ben like if my father had been in my life?
If my father reads this I would tell him "thank you"! The best thing he did for my mom and myself was to stop coming around. I can only imagine what life would have been like if he had stuck around.
I am 33 mom and have only seen him a handful of times, I prefer it that way. He has never paid child support to my mother, mostly because he has never had a job. The last couple of times that I saw him he was drunk. All I can say to him is good riddance, he can stay where he is and live the miserable life that he has been living.
I don't hold any hard feelings and feel only pitty that he has never gotten his life together. This is my closure and no longer have any hard feelings. God Bless my father.
