thank you we regret  not getting out sooner stayed in it 47 yrs  but from very very young age we was told to take care of mom emotionally she even then was codependent  on us over the years got even more so guess kinda we was emotionally her parent she never was there emotionally  due to her own abuse and never getting help she used her abuse to get pity even used our abuse after we was adult to get pity  but we did not want to be another one that abandoned  her as she tell us stories of her abuse conpare our abuse to her abuse a lot too but we thought we was to take care of her emotionally 

but a very dear friend online we known over 20yr worked with us even on this but we rejected the truth a lot but she was very  nice never pushed us to do anything until we was ready  she a disabled therapist  who not been able to work in many many years but she always helped us for free  she was a big part of us living family getting out of the abuse 

so this also a story of how people online matter when they help others  as in away she saved us even from ourselves  by helping us see truth and teaching  us what is abuse even things we thought was not abuse that be abuse

so want to say people like you do help others change their life for the better we seen this all over 7 cups too

sorry posts get long

thanks we free from the abuse at peace with that but due partly to  the abuse we have many health issues physically  and mentally  most never think of the long term physical  health issues of abuse until they having them  hope others can hear us  get out of abuse sooner and  within that avoid  some of the long term effects of abuse on their body and mind

Being Thankful – A Gentle Reminder

I wanted to re-share a short reflection I wrote some time ago. In the flow of daily life, we often overlook the simplest blessings—yet they are the very ones that sustain us.

“A Life Renewed with Every Breath”

"A human being is in need of gratitude twice with every single breath:
once for being able to inhale, and once for being able to exhale.

Because there is such a thing as taking but not being able to give, and giving but not being able to take.

Life exists within this delicate balance.

Without realizing it, without making any conscious effort, a flawless system placed within our bodies works continuously. In a single day, we breathe in and out nearly twenty-three thousand times. We never command ourselves to inhale, nor do we decide when to exhale. Yet this astonishing order operates without error or interruption.

The question is: do we truly give thanks to our Lord for the breaths we are granted so effortlessly?

Breathing, which we consider ordinary in daily life, is in fact the most indispensable condition for our existence. Let us imagine, even briefly, what would happen if our breath were taken away. After about one minute, we would lose consciousness; after two or three minutes, irreversible brain damage would occur—and life, with all its hopes and plans, would come to an end.

This alone shows that even a single breath is among the greatest blessings bestowed upon us. The Almighty has established within the human body an extraordinarily precise mechanism that functions entirely on its own, without burdening us in the slightest. Such a system is far beyond what even the most advanced computers and technologies of our time can fully replicate. Heart, lungs, nerves, and vessels all work in perfect harmony—while we remain largely unaware of this constant miracle.

For this reason, a person does not need to search for grand signs to find a reason for gratitude. Reflecting on just one breath is enough. That breath is the key to life; a silent witness to human helplessness, dependence, and the ever-present mercy that sustains us.

Yes, for even a single breath, we owe our Lord a thousand thanks.
For a breath is not merely air filling the lungs—it is life being granted anew, again and again."

@amiablePeace77 I'm thankful for my life's traumatic experiences that one at a time, I conquered. It's given me a LOT of wisdom bc I lived it every day but I believe that I went thru it bc I was strong enough when someone else wasn't.

I'm glad that you do not only see the negative aspect of what happened but also what you learned by it.
