Left Alone

[Lord Sithious]

My father was a real piece of work as well. Physically and emotionally abusive to me, and the same to my sisters and mum, but let's just say it went further than just that from what I know.

I have to say, without my mum around, I don't think I could have ever grown up to be even remotely okay. I mean granted, I do have a lot of demons I deal with, but I've managed to avoid all of my fathers abusive traits for the past few years.

With that said... It takes an incredibly weak, pathetic, worm of a human being to tell a 16 year old that he could care less if she died. I mean, I would gladly put several bullets into my father's body, but I don't think even he managed to say something that unforgivably cruel, and given how vulnerable you were at the time, I'd say that's getting pretty close to the bottom of the barrel of human depravity.

Remember this though: He has no value in this world. No worth, nothing that makes him special or significant. If he fell off the face of the Earth this very moment, we would be no better or worse off. That is how meaningless he is.

You however? You have that unique opportunity he lost out on a while ago, the ability to make something out of your life, something that you value, that you hold dear, that fulfills you. Maybe even something that makes you stand out in the crowd, that makes you uniquely special. Not everyone gets that chance, and not everyone wants it, but at the very least, you have the chance to make yourself happy, to surround yourself in the life you want, that you can thrive in.

But the piece of trash who called himself your adoptive "father"? His chances are gone, he has what he has, and he'll have to live with that, with no opportunity to create the life he wants for himself.

Nobody is entitled to anything. He isn't entitled to respect, or love, or admiration. The things we obtain in life we obtain through struggle and perseverance. So struggle and persevere. And if at all possible, do yourself a favor and wipe him from your mind completely. Once our bodies are gone, the memories of us are all that last. Don't give him an honor he doesn't deserve, the honor of being remembered. Make a perfect world for yourself, and let him starve in the wasteland of his.

first I'd like to say I'm sorry that you have received such harshness from your father and I'm glad that those traits are something that didn't pass to you. It's truly a horrible thing to be hated by someone that no matter what is supposed to love you always. Second I'd like to thank you for your kind words I hope one day to make my dreams come true and to make a difference in this world with my own hands even if it's something small that only a few people are affected by at least I made a difference to those few...that's my ultimate goal is to impact people, open their hearts and minds and have them come together and be united in the feelings I put into the things only I can do...maybe that's just a dream but I hope with all my heart that one day it becomes a reality. I can't say that I hate my adopted father but I can't say I hold anymore love for him either I don't even remember anything positive except that he was different even nice when my mom was alive and maybe it was his own sadness, depression, and anger at the fact that his own wicked addiction is what killed her at least that's what I hope his reason was though people like that hardly need a reason...though it's not like it matters, his words and actions hurt no matter the cause or reason and I truly hope that this hurt is something I can forget and truly be happy even if I do choose to forget him completely...I'm not as strong as I'd like my heart still yearns for the person I knew as dad...
