Have you ever had the Spirit reprimand you? That happened to me this past week
I’ve been a little hesitant to talk about this, but I think that my experience might be helpful to others.
My stepfather passed away last week. I was not close to him and my mom was only married to him for a few years, but when when I was about 12, my mom had my brother Nick. Technically Nick is my stepbrother, but I’ve never called him that. He’s my brother. And after talking to him on the phone about his dad’s passing, I felt like I should go down to Utah to be with him during this time.
It’s a long drive down to Utah from Port Angeles, WA and I had a lot of time on my own to think.
I remembered some of the disappointment that came around that time of my life. I wanted a family. I wanted my mom to be married. I wanted my brother. I wanted us to go on vacations and do things that families did.
But there was one thing. My stepfather Nick was an alcoholic. I realized that I was harboring some resentment and bad feelings.
