Last weekend the daughter I love to the sky and back, and I traveled down to sunny San Diego to attend a conference... an OCD conference. |
I knew this conference would be emotionally challenging for both of us
(it truly was)
to counteract this fact...
I wanted to stay some place
Fabulous
(and we did)
The W San Diego
I wanted a safe (as in stylish, can't wait to walk in an be there),
kind of emotion.
(and it was).
An.....Ahh, we're back
and everything is going to be ok......
kind of vibe
(and it was).
Quiet luxury
to offset
why we were in San Diego.
We were always aware
but you can only live in that moment
just so long
I believe you have to take things in as you are able
being terribly overwhelmed
just makes you want to
run.
A safe beautiful place to fall....
a necessity.
To still feel ok
while your searching for answers
to very troubling problems.
Safe....
as in emotionally safe
when your risking so much
in your honesty
of admitting a problem
and the tremendous strength and courage
it takes to search
for help
to be vulnerable....
you need a beautiful place
to fall.
to refresh
to go back and look again
for answers.....
one more time
It took me way to long
to really hear
and we will
journey together
for as long
as she needs my help
in finding
her answers....
I am honored
to be Ellis's
mommy.
OCD is only
one aspect of my truly amazing daughter
I am grateful for the journey
she and I have embarked on
to find the answers
and help
she is looking for.
as a side note.....
Ellis, as brave and confident as she is
said it was
ok
for me
to write about our journey.
I do love her so ....
she is truly
inspiring!

happy to know you both! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's is hard for a Mother to accept the fact her daughter is not perfectly whole in every way. I know it was for me anyway...I'm so glad you are searching for answers together.
