I have not been on in a while, since I got my Sugar Gliders, for they are quite the PeAcE maker of ones troubled Mind as you sit and watch them for hours on end..... but I do find that I now need a little HELP on a subject I have yet to enter.

My real FATHER - a MAN who has been absent from my LIFE for the last 40 years has requested to be allowed to come for a visit with all of his children from his first marriage to my mom for He is wanting to make amends and to ask for forgiveness.

Now while I did try to connect with him a few years back - no visit ever came from it, but we did talk a little via e-mail..... NOW! - after the death of his 10 year long relationship with his last girl-friend due to cancer and with Him turning 60 something he says he has come to realize that he made a mistake and that he should have NEVER left my mom nor his children for another (the young hot baby sitter).

But I ask? - How is one to let a man have his need to settle his life, mistakes and regrets before its to late, when they are unsure (cannot really say what I am unsure about - I just know I am).

..... I know I am angry at this MAN for so much and I hate that I was left and forgotten by someone that was suppose to love and protect me.

Has any one ever gone through this and come out on the other end with a sense of PeAcE and less Devastation...... if YES, please share.
