But I don't <a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/search_results.asp?site_search_term=stress">stress</a> about it, because I still have a Father that loves me more than any earthly man or person on this earth ever could. I'm talking<BR>about OUR Heavenly Father, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, his love never fails, if you have never tried him, I ask you to just try him for yourself. He can fill all your needs, all you have to do is ask!!!. It took me a while to realize this, to come out of my funk, but now that I have a relationship with the father that really counts, my life is so blessed. God is good all the time!!!!.<img src="http://assets2.sparkpeople.com/assets/diet/emoticons/e41.gif" alt="" width="42" height="42" border="0">

My dad's a pain in the bum too. He <a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/search_results.asp?site_search_term=married">married</a> a witch when i was sixteen and ever since he has had hardly anything to do with me and my kids. He might occasionally send a card but it's only if i badger him. He's all over her <a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/search_results.asp?site_search_term=family">family</a> and children but his own children are treating like vermin. <BR>My advice is live and let live. It's a painful descision to let go but by letting go your freeing yourself for more love from other avenues. I let go a while back and i feel great. I sometimes feel hurt when i see people having a great relationship with their fathers but then i feel proud of myself for standing on my own two feet and not allowing someone to treat me like crap.

Typed a letter to his mother stating he was no longer her son and did not want to be part of the <a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/search_results.asp?site_search_term=family">family</a> anymore.  His (bad word) of a wife being jealous of our <a href="http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/search_results.asp?site_search_term=family">family</a> brainwashed him onto it.  So my Gram has lost her baby boy; my Mother, a brother and I and my sisters have lost our favorite uncle.  People are stupid.  They do not realize that what they have is special and just throw it away like it is nothing. Someday he will regret it and by then, it will be too late.  He is not worth feeling hurt if he does not care enough himself.  Chin up and live a happy, healthy life!
