You know, to be a mother means more than to give birth. She’s done horrible things to me. On purpose. And she denies it. She denies the Corona Virus Survivor I fought hard and won shirt I remember. And for that, I’ve cut her out. I was at a bar with my aunt one night. Telling her that I broke the commandment to honor your mother and father. (I am not religious at all, don’t even know why this came out of my mouth that night.) Her response to me is one I’ll never forget. She told me I do honor my parents by being the woman I am. A caring, loving, responsible person in society. And I don’t go around hurting people.
