For all of those parents out there, I'm sure you know exactly what I mean when I state that half of the relationship I have with my kids is about going to war with them. Not because I don't love them nor is it because I don't care: it's BECAUSE I care that I go to war with them in the first place. There are strengths and weaknesses inside of each one of them that teach me crucial lessons about myself, making me realize that 80% of the time that an issue or challenge comes up with my kids, it's on me. Inside of my world I have been brought to this place of what I'm experiencing (including the type of children that are under my stewardship to raise) a reality that is meant specifically for me. You have a reality that is specifically meant for you, yet regardless of what our reality is, that which we seek to bring us power comes about through hunting for the truth within. The war that I have with my kids is really about the war that I have with myself.
