My mom has actually given someone a lecture about "just adopt and you'll get pregnant."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-39666603740157702992006-10-20T04:20:00.000+10:002006-10-20T04:20:00.000+10:00It does make it easier to know you're supported an...It does make it easier to know you're supported and that your feelings are shared. IF emotions follow the stages of grief, and anger's right in there. We bargain, we grieve, and at some point let it go. Never all the way, since we still want what we want, but enought to be where you are now. Knowing even when it seems as bad as it could get for you, it's much worse for someone else.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06477543108055597027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-32338858964172537652006-10-20T02:58:00.000+10:002006-10-20T02:58:00.000+10:00It actually is kind of freeing when you can put th...It actually is kind of freeing when you can put the anger aside for a while.<br /><br />Take caresoralishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08874975328481113933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-34727149761819711842006-10-19T23:03:00.000+10:002006-10-19T23:03:00.000+10:00Bea- Just two words.

I wish I could let go of the anger too - it's a work in progress for me; I can't let it go completely.<br /><br />But I have to tell you, when my MIL said the same thing to me, it made me feel so loved. That someone cared about me enough to get angry on my behalf- well, it was just nice.<br /><br />I love that song too.<br /><br />*hug*Serenityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765237663006604157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-58941072505309789592006-10-19T05:43:00.000+10:002006-10-19T05:43:00.000+10:00i LOVE this post. you are so right. i had a "tur...i LOVE this post. you are so right. i had a "turning point" about 2 months ago (it was a gradual thing, so kinda hard to pinpoint) about just this sort of thing. feeling more at peace with all of this is wonderful. there are good days and better days and a few bad days, but life is short and a life without anger is much more livable, and dare i say, sometimes wonderful? no matter what happens. hugs.YouGuysKnowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054318786774793178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-29919065987379078852006-10-19T02:34:00.000+10:002006-10-19T02:34:00.000+10:00Bea,

I wanted her to understand and once she did, I let a *little* of the anger go. I am glad your mom said that to you, I am glad she sees the unfairness in it. <br /><br />I wish you lots of good luck this weekend, take good care of yourselfKirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17894442143508446312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25184159.post-90598591983808481202006-10-19T01:51:00.000+10:002006-10-19T01:51:00.000+10:00Bea, you sound amazingly at peace right now.
I th...Bea, you sound amazingly at peace right now.<br /><br />I think it's interesting when our parents start to "get it." But I am so glad to hear that you are putting the anger aside for the time being. It is really, really difficult to do that, for there are SO many things in IF to be angry about. But it comes back to control - we don't have it, so what good is the anger and the worry?<br /><br />And I love that song by the Byrds.Hopeful Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15339776324264791028noreply@blogger.com
