Update: can we be still - georgia harmer only song I heard today - no driving, I had to focus, but I said I would listen so. I am letting yes algorithms write themselves on whiteboards in my mind.

It is my father's birthday today.

I had gotten very skilled at throwing some daughter at him, then scoot before the attack(s), for years and years. But I was trapped this last time, no scoot unless I left him to die. Which I chose not to do. So. He reminded me of damage he did to things I loved, how exactly he hurt them, killed them, helpless things that could not defend themselves, demonstrating how small I was. Tinyfeeling. I put a mental belljar over those details long ago. I remember the rage, of course, but specific instances like the puppy I named Solo because it was already all alone, that took my breath away. And I was already barely breathing when I got there. That's why. Because I was small again. 

I will wish him happy birthday because my soul my choice

song tbd, I'll listen for it

Under the late Cancer sun, the wisdom is in emotional attunement — and offering direction that's truly reachable.


That word again. Attunement.
