‘My son, be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Let them not escape from your sight; keep them within your heart. For they are life to him who finds them, and healing to all his flesh.’ Proverbs 4, v. 20–22. RSV.

My 89-year-old Parents Rejected Me on Christmas Day. I Have Tried All My Life To Be Their Son.

I am forsaken. I am not worthy of them. I Am Their Living Shame.
