November 30 5 RelationshipsHey guys, I've had blogger's block lately so I sought out some writing prompts, this is my favorite: What 5 relationships have the greatest impact on your life? So here goes, in chronological order.
1. My Mother: Aren't we all largely shaped by our mothers? They are with us from the get-go, if we are truly blessed they are always there, as mine has been. I am a lot like my mother in many ways, and her polar opposite in a few. Sometimes I say something a certain way or tilt my head like her, or make a facial expression exactly like her and it completely freaks my husband out LOL. I would say the biggest part of me that my mom "shaped" is my need to always be a lady, to be polite ALWAYS, and to always for lack of a better term be "well-behaved". Funny looking back, because most of these things did not rub off on my little sister, go figure.
2. MY Biological father: Without getting into the intricacies of this situation- I have never met him, nor has he ever wanted a relationship with me, to the best of my knowledge. Sometimes I think his absence has effected me more than his presence would have. The fact that (whatever the reason) your own father, the man that should always love you, protect you, and be there for you A. has no desire to be any of those things to you and B. has no clue the impact his complete and utter disreguard has had on you. Because of this, deep in my subconcious I continue to be "not good enough" in most of my relationships, even now, not to the people who love me but to myself. It has effected my relationship with the only father I've ever known, my relationship with my mom (I needed her more as a child), And most importantly my relationship with God which leads me to # 3.
3. God, my Heavenly Father: I have learned that He is the only one that will truly never leave me or disappoint me. That no matter what should happen I can turn to Him in every situation, no matter the hurt, big or small. I don't have the words to express the love I feel for Him.
4. Boyfriend "No Name": I am listing this nameless person not bc of the importance of my relationship with him on it's own (bc it has none) but bc the heartbreak I experienced when we broke up, and later when we could no longer be best friends, moved me into the place I needed to be to meet and fall in love with my most important relationship (other than my relationship with God)- My husband!
5. That's right you guessed it MY HUSBAND! He is my best friend and so much more. He is the love of my life and I can't imagine a life that he isn't a part of. He's had to overcome a lot thanks to relationships #2 & #4, and maybe a little bit with #1 (just kidding mom), but thanks to relationship #3 he made it through without a scratch! I love you more than you will ever know Trey.
For anyone who is wondering why my sweet baby girl isn't on this list, I took this more as a pre-child topic, the ppl that shaped so much of who I would become as her Mama! I love you my sweet, sweet Gracie girl!
