It turns out that my cousin and I just view something very differently. Normally, that wouldn’t be an issue. But money got involved before I discovered that we viewed it so differently. So, now we’re dealing with the repercussions of that. My aunt seemed supportive of our ability to sort it out. I don’t know how my cousin feels about it all, but I’ve said what I feel I needed to say, and am okay moving forward from it at this point. However, that will be different if she has things she still needs to say about it all. If that is the case, then I think I’ll just need to communicate that she and I see the whole thing differently, which ties into that I had needed to talk with my husband before she and I had done anything. But I was beyond exhausted and overwhelmed and needed things to be handled in a hurry, so I just accepted what she requested without speaking up for the discomfort I felt at the time.
Anyway, that sucks, but my aunt had me feel encouraged tonight.
Thank you, God, for this opportunity for growth. Help us both to grow well and lovingly. Guide me to have your words. In your name, I pray. Amen.
