Stepmother role – call for waking up

It is clear for us stepmothers what a difficult role we stepped in. We thought that it could be challenging but never would have imagined this. It is almost like being in an abusive relationship where the victim is starting to question his or her own reality. We already lost our lively sense of self, who we were before we married a man with children. We lost the dreams we had about how our life with our beloved husband would look like. Lost. Devastated. This is a huge possibility to examine something deeper.

We want to act naturally and then it is received with revolt by the kids or the ex and we do not understand anything anymore. There is nothing to grab on, as soon as we would think that everything is fine something happens and again you the stepmother is the scapegoat. It can get really exhausting so we want to find some rest at our husband’s side, but we cannot because the kids are always there and you cannot take off time just the two of you. You are longing for relief more than anything and you cannot get it. You are stuck.

Yes, you are stuck in your circumstances, but who you really are is here independent and free of all of this. Even by reading this you can feel it is true. Discovering who you really are is the truest help. As soon as you realize the spaciousness that you are, the circumstances will lose there power over you and you can have a more relaxed view on what is going on.

You can stop following your thoughts about your situation, and just be here right now. I invite you to deeply rest. It is so nourishing to not do anything even just for this little while. Feel the spaciousness and lightness of your own true being. Even this stuck, suffering, tired stepmother-self have a room in that, which you might wanna get rid of because it is causing trouble. But for now do not touch it. Leave it alone. Be here as you are. Drink from this peace that you are.
