Do you ever.....    

Do you ever feel hopeless.

Do you ever feel scared.

Do you ever feel so frightened.

Frightened, like the monsters under your bed or in your closet are real, yet, no one believes you!

The monsters of the "grown up" world have many different names, different faces.

Their names or titles can be 

Narcisst 

Cheater

Those who disrespect &  alienate their parents

Liar

User

Meth

Verbal Abuser

Emotional Abuser

Physical Abuser

Sexual Abuser

Child Abusers 

Serial Adulterer

Deceiver

They all have one aspect in common. All of these monsters create incalculable pain in the lives, in the hearts of those people the purveyors of such pain, profess to love.

The distress has far reaching effects, a ripple effect through time, if you will.

The result is a heaping helping of pain, regret. Things which people should have or should not have done or said

Coulda, Shoulda, Woulda.

Or

Couldn't have, shouldn't have, wouldn't have if only the far reaching consequences had been known. 

Isn't there a Kenny Chesney song like that?

It's a different situation entirely when a person is too toxic to have contact with, too toxic to you, to have them in your life.

There is hope.

While you & those you love are still living, breathing, smiling, laughing, it's best to reach out when you feel that you sincerely can.

It's better to do it & be glad you did, than to with hold the love you feel, then wish you had, when that person passes on. 

None of us knows when our time or someone else's time on earth will be done.

Life is so fragile, it can end in an instant, that will be it, the opportunity will be lost.

Reach out in love, with sincerity. 

Reap the joy.

Aloha!
