Pandora

Last week was rough. Lots of feelings that had been held in the shadows for far too long came to the light. She has hope for the future, but has determined to stop trying to make everything perfect. Her daughter is pulling away. Slowly they are losing her to her own mind. Maybe she will realize they love her before it’s too late. Maybe she will realize they really do understand what it is like to be 17. She wonders if she should let her daughter read this diary. Maybe then she would understand. That is a door she wants to leave closed. She has already been so hurt by the mindless things that have come from her mouth. This diary could turn into Pandora’ s box.
