Hoping for advice or at least a little boost, ladies.
*Forgive me, Jude, for sharing my email to you here. I just don't have the strength to re-tell this story.*
My little sister ran away this weekend with her girlfriend. The cops found her in Montgomery, AL - 5 hours from home and across a state line. My folks went and got her and pressed contributing to the delinquency of a minor charges against the girlfriend who is 18. (Sis is 15.) They have taken Sissy's phone and banned her from the computer.
I'm worried sick and just want to scoop her up. But I've been more or less estranged from the fam since I left my husband, and totally estranged since January when I went to their home and tried to repair the relationship. Sis witnessed their bigotry, anger and hatred towards me and my true family. Shortly thereafter, she came out and ran away for the first time.
I'm doing lots of Ham Sa, as you can well imagine. I may have to have my chakra realigned after this, too:] I hate the way this negativity feels in my body. I feel like if I could throw up, I would feel better, but I know that's not true. This hurt and confusion is deeply rooted and festers on a somewhat regular basis. Big Sigh.
sending good vibes.... :)
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I'm so sorry to hear this.
ReplyDeleteMy ex's little sister kinda went through the same thing not too long ago, and she's also 15 (the sister, not my ex haha). Her parents found a note she had written to a friend about how she thought she was gay and was now dating a girl... and they flipped out and blamed it on my ex. Little sis ran away, but the parents have since come around and been much more understanding. I can only hope that with time, your parents will find it in their hearts to not drive your sister away. But if they don't, at least she has a great big sister to turn to. I'm sorry I don't have any advice, but my thoughts are definitely with you and your sister. Keep us posted!
{{{{Windy}}}} I'm sorry about your sister having to go thru this ..it's already hard enough being 15, trying to figure out where you fit all these adult emotions when you're barely out of childhood..lucky she has you for guidance :) sending all good thoughts and vibes your way...
ReplyDeleteOh man. This is tough.
ReplyDeleteWish I could do more than send positive thoughts your way.
She's got a brilliant big sister to turn to tho!
