So Why Does it Hurt?
As I spend most holidays alone, and forget it is even a holiday, why do I feel so hurt when my oldest child says they are leaving town for a week to spend Thanksgiving at some other place, in another state? It’s not like we’d planned anything here together. I didn’t realize until yesterday that it was Thanksgiving this coming week.
Maybe it’s because my oldest is my only relative in this city, this state, and this country, and I was already feeling sad missing those I’ve lost from my life...husband, pets, etc; and there has been some anniversaries in the past few days with memories of holidays in times past. I have no friends in this city and state, so I’ll be completely alone. Maybe it’s all the above.
