Maturity Check

“We fight, we fix, we love, we stay.” That’s called maturity. It’s the ability to navigate the ups and downs of relationships with grace, humility, and a willingness to grow together.

Fighting is inevitable, but it’s how we fight that matters. Maturity means learning to communicate effectively, to listen actively, and to resolve conflicts in a healthy and constructive way.

Fixing means taking responsibility for our actions, apologizing when we’re wrong, and making amends. It involves the willingness to compromise and find common ground.

Loving means choosing to prioritize the relationship, even when it’s hard. It means showing up with empathy, compassion, and kindness, even in disagreement.

Staying means committing to the journey through the good times and the bad. It means recognizing that relationships are a journey, not a destination, and being willing to put in the work to maintain and strengthen them.

Maturity is not about being perfect; it’s about being willing to learn, grow, and evolve together. It’s about understanding that relationships involve ups and downs, twists and turns, and being willing to navigate them with courage, resilience, and love.

So, let’s embrace the fight, fix, love, and stay. Let’s choose maturity and cultivate healthy, fulfilling relationships that bring joy and happiness to our lives.

I have joined with many parents affected with the surreal , yet accepted issue of child abuse via Pathogenic Parenting / Domestic abuse. As a survivor of Domestic Abuse, denial abounded that 3 sons were not affected. In my desire to be family to those who have found me lacking . As a survivor of psychiatric abuse, therapist who abused also and toxic prescribed medications took me to hell on earth with few moments of heaven. I will share my life, my experiences and my studies and research.. I will talk to small circles and I will council ; as targeted parents , grandparents , aunts , uncles etc. , are denied contact with a child for reasons that serve the abuser ...further abusing the child. I grasp the trauma and I have looked at the lost connection to a higher power.. I grasp when one is accustomed to privilege, equality can feel like discrimination.. Shame and affluence silences a lot of facts , truths that have been labeled "negative". It is about liberation of the soul from projections of a alienator , and abuser ..
