First Swell-Do you believe in generational trauma?

Just the belief in not understanding it was was like, profound for me until I started facing it. So I looked at something in my childhood and it shocked me. The first thing was I looked at the love or the lack of love my mother shared towards me. Now, what I mean by that is the public affections. This is my little girl. The hugs, the kisses, the bows, all of that

I felt this was another madeup syndrome to keep African Americans trapped by not holding us accountable for our actions. Then I looked at myself!

And anyway, all of these pieces have really made me change my mind about the realness of generational trauma. It's definitely very real. Very real. Anyway, I'm rambling at you, but welcome. Just well

And I spent half my life trying to fix it and didn't realize it couldn't. He's actually in hospice right now, and I'm trying to deal with that, cope with that. The man that it's hard to even know how I feel about. And I want to get things him right before he passes. And I've I've kind of give up on that. And, you know, he he could go. He's not really coherent now

I mean, for my youngest, who's ten now, he probably got more, but I see that there's the difference between the first one who's 23 24, is she 23 24, she's 23, and the difference between the hugs and kisses and everything, the attention that she got. And you can only go so many spread yourself so thin with four kids and and and unfortunately, that's the way it is, you know

They're going to act like spoiled people who are getting ready to enter into adulthood. And the things they could say are so hurtful, it could crush you. So we throw up that wall and we leave a little peaco. So along the wall, they're little peacos. Or we could peek out and see who's on that side at that moment. So for me, I so appreciate your response, and I thank you for staying up and just really thinking about my first conversation

So I just wanted to add that little point. I hope you find peace. And my response, I hope you're able to have a peaceful rest and wake up rejuvenated and full of energy and love and compassion and joy. Okay, Ms. Natasha, stay well and please, I will definitely be following you because I got to go check out some of your stuff. I think it's really powerful. Every time you mention something, it makes me think of something else

I have three sons and a daughter, and my oldest son is 46 years old. And when I am with him, I'm going to tell him that I love him. And when we part, I am going to hug him and I am going to kiss him. And my children just know that's the way dad is. He's going to show his pride and his love of his children. So I think what you're doing with your children is excellent

So definitely I can understand from all of your point of views and I can attest because I was able to get away for a few years, but I realized I can't be away when I'm trying to heal. And I know a lot of people would be like, what does I thought the whole point is you need space. For me, I suffer from severe separation anxiety due to losing my father at such a young age

And I'm not as advanced with the hugging and loving as you are, but I'm getting there, and I'm so grateful for the inspiration to continue. It's important to show that gratitude to our children, that we love them, and without them, I cannot be. I so thank you for that. My oldest son, I got a surprise the other day, and his fiancee called and said, mother in law, we're getting married. And I'm like, really?

Bye. Thank you so much for coming on and finding my post. Wow. I'm just so grateful. I'm showing gratitude for this connection with you. And I understand. I understand the pain is real, and a lot of people don't get it. They're like, oh, well, you just need to do this. Oh, well, you just need to do that. No, it comes in time. It comes in time when you need to take care of something

I am a watercolor painter, and that doesn't mean that I'm an artist at all. But thank you very much for your kind words. I just hope that I didn't come across as somebody who's achieved some lofty goal and I'm all wise and all that, because I'm not. I'm just this little old guy in Minnesota. And I have been through some things, and I see some things, and I know that generational hurt can be terrible

I think we just need to know about it so that we can do something about it today so that it is a resolution and it doesn't pass on to the next generation of our family. But I thought this was a real live, very popular you really hit one with this one. And I'm really glad that you shared this and I'm glad for the opportunity to reply and to continue my research. Okay, you have a blessed day and I thank you for sharing. Bye
