same old same old
Yesterday I got in a argument with my mom. She is so stubborn and selfish she cant treat me like I am her daughter ever. She has always treated me like a second class citizen compared to my siblings. She is one of those people you never want to do anything even if she is the one who say she wants to do it for you she just holds it against you till you want to pluck your eyes out of your head. I would pay her back all she has done for me in cash but I cant and she doesn't seem to realize that she thinks I can just pull money out of thin air. One thing she has taught me is that no one will ever help you without a price. Charity is dead. It is now I have done something for you what can you do for me. I heard a saying in the book I am reading "The Rosary" "Myra is
extraordinarily honest, and always inclined to be frank about
herself and her foibles. She had a curious upbringing. She is one of
a large family, and was always considered the black sheep, not so
much by her brothers and sisters, as by her mother. Nothing she was,
or said, or did, was ever right. "Why are people of that sort
allowed to be called 'mothers'? We, who have had tender, perfect
mothers, would like to make it law that the other kind should always
be called 'she-parents,' or 'female progenitors,' or any other
descriptive title, but not profane the sacred name of mother!"
When I heard this I could feel the tears in my eyes and I could also hear my mother say. "not everything is about you. and hear her say other things about how I am too sensitive and how I take everything too personally." I just wish for once I could have one of those lovely timid mothers who love their children and do anything for them and not make them suffer for bothering them. Not remind them every two minutes of what they have "done for them." and just be happy they have enough blessings
