Excluded
Deny (someone)access to or bar (Someone) from a place, group, or privilege.
Let me start by saying my pain is real because I don't hide from my feelings anymore to make others comfortable.
I procrastinated on writing this because I was hurt by it and needed time to process the hurt.
I was on Facebook last Sunday and saw that my family is having another family reunion this year, and even though my mother or sisters were not included in the emails.
So imagine going through Facebook and seeing emails have been sent out, and my family was excluded.
One thing this year is teaching me over and over again is that sometimes it's okay to be invisible.
God has taught me that people will let you down and exclude you because you were never in the spaces others created.
So I stay in my lane quietly observing learning where my place is.
My writing has helped me overcome some of the trauma caused by many who claimed they loved and cared for me, yet stayed invisible to the point I became irrelevant.
I'm so glad I'm covered by a love so pure and unconditional that I no longer have to accept love from anyone who has excluded me.
My goal with this post is that none of my readers ever feel excluded!!
