ODWA'S: Going back in time to yester years. If i Could Choose one day from my childhood what day would it be....

This is a pondering question?

If I could go back in time and choose one day and one day only from my childhood what day would it be and what age would I be?????

This actually was a very easy question for me.

October 12, 1987....

Two days prior to this my parents divorce was final (October 10) then two days (October 12, 1987) later it would be my 4th birthday!!!!!

People say you dont remember things from your childhood but you do...

I think this was the exact da/moment my mother became my mother (the woman who gave birth to me) but not my mom or mommy (years and I do mean Years later that would change but at that time it was the truth)...

My mother did not call that day. She did not come by... I was a sad "birthday girl" that day. I cried myslef to sleep that night... and if you ask my dad he will tell you the phone finally rang at around 3-4am (October 13, 1987) but by this time I had fallen asleep because I cried myself that way. My dad did answer the phoen that night and my mother was on the other end of the line, but he simply told her I was asleep and it was to late to be calling. My own mother had forgotten my birthday and in her drunken slumber remembered it... (HURTFUL HUH)....

From that day forwarded I think it made me a much stronger better person. Don't you.

Now years later... I am much better.. My moms and my reationship is mended.. and though the memories of the past still sneak up on me.. It is what it is.. The past and we all must learn how to live through it...

I have...
