I am one of 4, we were raised very Catholic, Catholic schools, customs, etc. My mom is atoxic person. When she is angry she leaves scathing messages on the message machine/voice mail of whomever she is angry with. Usually it is one of her children. A few years ago she left me a message saying she cursed the day I was born and that she never wanted me. I did not talk to her for several months. Life moves on. I keep very strict boundries with my mother, as do my siblings. She has done this to all of us.
One of my sisters says that I have to be cleansed through reliigious prayer. If not I'll carry this evil spirit with me and it will effect my life. This makes me feel like there is something wrong with me. By the way, the last 5 years of my life have been great, before that it was pretty bad, I've had to work out with what I call life issues and things are, my family very happy. The curse came in the middle of alll this. So my life didn't get worse after the curse. And how do you know you've been cursed?
It makes me angry that some people use religion as the end of to all of their problems and it becomes and instrument in their folly. By the way, my mother, says my sister is possesed and we should all pray for her.
