Happy Halloween!

An “All Saints’ Day” Birthday does not ANOINT a “Wicked Abuser!”

As a child, “All Saints’ Day,” the day after Halloween, was a day off from school.  Each year, I was to spend “All Saints’ Day” in the worship of the “Saint” in my life.   As an adult, I learned to dread Halloween because it was to be spent preparing Birthday parties for the “Saint” in my life.  Each year, she would end the parties and the day by making sure that I knew how much she didn’t enjoy holidays and parties.  And, how imposed upon she felt because of having to fake enjoying what I did for her.

Today, I am having an appreciated party!

Yester Years, I gave her parties only to be asked, “Why do you like punishing me?”  What she didn’t understand was that I am not punishing her.  On her last birthday, she had run out of Flying Monkeys to worship her.   I think a few of her monkeys finally believed that she attempted to murder me throughout my life.  Narcissists do not take well to being alone and exposed.

This was written years prior to 2021. On this Halloween (2021), I am letting my happiest witch’s laugh be heard because of celebrating the first Halloween that I will be allowed to enjoy, my Wicked Witch Mother is finally dead.

Did she want me, or did she only desire a servant? The last time she attempted to murder me, 2/20/18, I declared her dead.

Today, I remember the pain of her abuse.  I may never forget it.  She gave me a gift that only an evil-hearted witch could give their daughter.  I have facial neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia. Each day the pain reminds me of how much my mother never loved me.  And I am punishing her?

Today, I want to tell all Survivors that you deserve to enjoy the smiles that show through costumes.  And, go ahead, give out a few treats, friendly tricks, and smiles.  Tomorrow, you will have the memory of how good it feels to enjoy; however, you choose to spend the day. 

Survivors, you deserve to enjoy every holiday because you are living through “Hell” for the freedom to be happy. 

Happy Halloween!  Yes, it is ok to wish your “Wicked Abuser Dead!”
