A letter of healing.
A letter to the Dad that walked out of my life.
Dear Dad,
As I am seating here watching my kids running around chasing our dog in a failed attempt to give him a bath, laughing, giggling and making memories, I can't help to wonder why?
Why did you choose to walk out of my life? Why did you think that your fellings and your life where more important than mine and the only ones the mattered? Why did you choose to walk away from memories, from laughter and unconditional love?
As I watch my kids run around in laughter, I realize that I could never understand your motive when all I want to do in life is love my kids more than anything.
Today I am a grown woman, some say I'm broken, some say I'm strong, I say I just take it one day at a time.
But I have come to the conclusion that you leaving me has made me stronger, has made me realize how amazing of a mother I have, because she took on so much responsibility, she guided me and my brothers and always stood by our side all on her own always proud to be our mom, it also has made me realize how blessed I am for being my mothers daughter thhe strongest woman I know, an unstoppable fighter and a reminder of love. You leaving me made me understand that I might of needed you as a child but thankfully I don't need you anymore as an adult. You walking out on me made me realize that I will never need you in my life.
Yes dad, this is good bye, good bye forever. TODAY IS MY TURN TO WALK OUT OF YOUR LIFE. I'm tired of people asking about you and acting surprised as I tell them you never have made an attemp at being part of my life when we all know it was your choice to leave me and my life behind. I hope that I never get to see you again for the rest of my life, I don't want to hurt anymore, because the more I realize the love for my own children the more I realize the fact that you never loved me.
I wish nothing but a life filled with love, blessings and happiness for you and your family, the family you have chosen to love. May God always protect you and your family.
Good bye,
The daughter you left behind.
Elizabeth Roberto
