Beware Of Tiger

A wise man once told me to never let one action slander someone's character. So true and such sweet words to hear. I used to judge, a lot. I used to judge single moms. "Like how could she not keep her man or that poor kid who only has one parent." Now I am one, and boy was I wrong!! The world throws things at us that are sometimes a really hard way to learn lessons. But would you really learn any other way? 

(Wise Uncle with Junebug)

Yes, the mysterious man is still gone from the house if you are all wanting to know. It will remain that way for quite a while until we learn to learn the hard way. How could you close the door on someone when you know that ONE mistake (no need to claim past ones)  doesn't define their character.

The mommy tigress in me takes over and all I want to do is gash out eyes if needed to keep Junebug in her safe, innocent, protected environment. I, at all cost, will provide stability for her. I want to raise the strong, beautiful, independent and oh so confident woman that my parents so effortlessly did with me! She deserves every bit of it! So if that means giving lots of healing time to this 6 yearish relationship until we are 100% ready, then it does. I will sacrifice my happiness for hers. And who am I kidding? Junebug is what makes me happy :) 

(Vicious!)

So today, I beg you all to shun those people who say to you "you have a hard head" or "why do you always have to learn the hard way"??? And you say back with a smile: because the ones who don't are honestly the ones who suffer.
