Parenting

You’re not alone, even when you feel you are.

Success and failure

Friends and isolation 

Fear and pride

Joy and despair 

Depression 

Unemployment 

Anxiety

Addiction

Right next door. Right in our circle. Right under our nose. We share the parenting experience 

If you knew what you know now, would you have done it at all? If yes, like me, rejoice in all if it. It us the fullness of life.

Our children, like us, battle all kinds of inner demons. We find ourselves further and further isolated, protecting our children, protecting ourselves, never realizing that right next door, the battles and challenges mirror our own.

It’s not new. Look into your past. 

Don’t you have an uncle (or an aunt) who was/is…different?

This parenting thing us hard. Isolating. Fulfilling. Completely overwhelming. But I embrace it as the greatest gift. You?
