- On our journey through estrangement, we have gone through the initial shock, denial, anger, depression and finally acceptance. Some of us are still healing from fresh wounds. Many of us have patched up our wounds and moved towards the future. We...

- This Thanksgiving as we sit around the table and eat delicous foods, some of us will be missing our dear estranged children. Let us remember that we have so much to be thankful for despite the estrangement. Let us remember that God has our estranged...
- Been thinking about this. We will always be parents, but our EC are no longer children. Part of the cycle of life.This said, I believe we can't ever have the same kind of relationship with them as we did when they were dependent on us. If we did, it...
