Wrap up: What I learned today
Today, I happened to be strolling through a grocery store shopping and learned that I am apparently a missing and endangered teenager, according to the family that I left.
What’s strange, is I’m not missing. I just don’t care to be found, located, or talked to by the people I formerly called family. I happened to have seen a flier with my face on it, which startled me a little, but actually taught me one thing — most never care, nor even attempt to show they care until you’ve left their life (like I did.)
I’m actually happy I left, life couldn’t be any better. Coming home at night, curling up on the couch with the love of my life, watching him snore (so cute); why would I trade that for a family that has never treated me right? Nor told me the truth.
I see it as this. I traded the lies, deceit, and the heartache, for true love and happiness. Fair trade right?
That seems like a fair trade to me. Sounds like ye mum wasn’t all that nice mate.
I talk to him regularly since he left home. He’s allot happier, I still see a bit of the problems he had while he was living in the West, but they’re slowly fading. I’m beginning to see the old goofy Derick come out. I’m really happy for him.
