The Poison Apple

Snow White took a bite of the poison apple and fell into a deep sleep. Poison come in ALL shapes and forms.  The ammonia I mop the floor with is great, the bleach I clean the sink with is even better...but mix them together and they become deadly.  I can't live without chocolate, it brings me great joy, but if one of my dogs was to get a hold of it, it could have disastrous consequences.  Poison comes in all shapes and forms...even human.

As the "Proverbial Wife" I should love and pray for my enemies.  Ok...umm yeah not there yet.  Where I am at is trying to keep an eye on her under the pretext of looking out for my family.  At times though it is like rubber necking at the scene of a horrible car crash - no pun intended- I can't seem to let it go.  Maybe it is because of the horrible things the she is saying. Lies meant to attack and instigate. If we (or most of us) have let it go why on earth can't she.  If she is as "damaged and hurt" (and I use those terms very loosely) as she says she is then wouldn't she just want to let it go. After I have been hurt all I want to do is put it behind me.

I guess what I don't understand is the mindset of a person who intentionally sets out to damage and tear apart a family all the while claiming it's because she wants one of her own...no what she really wanted to do was replace a key family member.  Throughout her time with us she seeped her poison into every crack she could find.  Any small minute fissure she saw she did her best to pour her poison in and make it split.  She is still trying to create havoc...

I need to let it go...turn my rubber neck around and worry about driving my own car before I get in an accident...easier said then done.  But I will work on it...she is not my concern.
