Becoming a Butterfly


 I'll Be Back Some Day
Back to Full Blog  


Hi friends, I just wanted to let you know that I will be gone for awhile. It may be a week, it may be a month. It may even be longer than that. I have so much on my mind right now. So much that I need to do. So much to think about. I need time to heal. I may take a trip. To Illinois. To Washington DC. To Acoma Pueblo at Christmas time. I may not. I may go see Kevin and show him that I never lied and then leave. I may just wrap my arms around Joel and never let go. I may read some books and write some letters. Real letters...with stamps. I may serve Thanksgiving Dinner at the homeless shelter. I wish that I could strap Tucker on a backpack and work on a reservation. I wish that I could see those Red Mountains in Arizona one more time and watch the lightening dance off the cliff. I want to see the purple sunset in New Mexico. I want to make amends to people and let them make amends to me. I am so aware of time passing by me now. The years slip away before I have time to grasp them in my hand. In my mind. I am in a differant place in my life now. A kinder place. A gentler place. A place to reflect and be grateful. A time to feel joy. A time to feel. There is so much that I haven't done. So much that I still want to do. Have a safe Holiday. Be grateful. Feel blessed. Make snow angels and invite someone lonely to dinner. Tell people that you love them. Hold them close. Tell them that you are sorry. Be safe. Take care.

I am not in a very good place in my life. Having to live with my Mama is not a very good thing. She is mean and dishonest. She always has a hidden agenda. When you can't trust your mother it is really bad. And I don't see anyway for Logan and I to live but with them. I am very sad. Sometimes I wish I'd never left Tampa. And I miss the 2 babies I lost recently, My little Mary and my darling Stinker Belle.
You are such a good person. I hope all things work out great for you and Joel. You really deserve it.
Happy Thanksgiving.

ValAnne:

We are sorry that you won't be with us for an undetermined time, but we understand the circumstances of your leaving.

1 To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:

2 A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;

3 A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

5 A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

6 A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

7 A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

8 A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.

You do what you need to do & don't worry about us. We'll still be here when you return.

I hope you find exactly what it is that you're looking for while you're gone - wherever you end up going. Just please be safe/careful on your journey.

You're very much loved & will be missed.

ValAnne, hurry back to us, but first enjoy your time off to yourself.

You deserve what you want. You are precious, and kind and feel what others feel. What a gift.

Stay safe sweet friend. Be careful, and know you are loved by me.

I miss you already. Time is a gift, and we should use it wisely!

Nobody wants regrets, and I too am mending some fences myself.

Your friend, Heide

Hi ValAnne,

I'm new to this blog and was reading some of your writing. I hope that you are able to sort things out. I also had a child by someone and my state (Mississippi) Child Support division was able to sort things out with the father. It seems that may be the better tact to take than putting yourself through the emotional roller coaster you seem to be on...and we have all been there. Therapy is also almost always a blessing!!
