For too long I carried both my mother’s shame, and my father’s guilt!
God has given me a new life now… one filled with a hope and a future.
When my mother died, I allowed her to take all her shame with her to the grave, and my father will one day be buried under all his own vile guilt!
I am free, forgiven and being renewed, day by day…
God offers this to any who seek His face!
Here, have a cookie…
Journey With Me! 
You have started a new tradition my friend. It’s one of forgiveness and renewal. That’s far greater than any of the old traditions that could have been passed down. 🤗
