Parent Alienation Syndrome P.A.S.


I am going through Parent Alienation from my children and it is a living hell.
I have not spoken out publicly until now to protect my children from further pain since my separation and divorce from their father. I do not see that that has been helpful though so am now trying to speak out to hopefully help the situation. There are no concrete solutions but I know that I have to do something or can very possibly lose them forever. I make no claims of being a perfect mother but I do love them all unconditionally and strongly from everything that is good in me. Parent Alienation Syndrome has no age limit and is also seen in adolescent and adult children. I have survived the lowest of lows through the grace of God, a good therapist and a few awesome friends. I do not blame my children in any way and do not want some kind of vengeance to their father. I hope to change some of the dysfunctions within the generations of our families. Please read the P.A.S. link to get an understanding of what I and many people are going through. As the target alienated parent it hard for me to fully understand or deal with. My children have just about cut me out of their lives for over two years now. Holidays have become painful and depressing. Please do not judge my children. My Ex-husband and I are the reason they are going through the pain and turmoil they live daily. For my children, I am sorry if this hurts you but I do not know what else to do to let you know that I do love you and always want and appreciate the grace of you in my life.

Below is a self-portrait I painted that representing the deep emptiness I feel every day. My paintings are normally filled with color and life. P.A.S. takes the color out of the best parts of my life.

U.S. CITIZEN UNITE AND PRAY!


 


SUPPORT the GOOD & JUST
U.S. OF AMERICA BUSINESSES!

Stop shopping only at Walmart Conglomerates, McDonald's, Dollar Stores, On-line Overseas, Drug Company's, Monopolized Services,  and places that have most of their product's imported from other countries. It is contributing to the collapse of our small businesses and the wellness of our people. Look to see where your consumer goods are made, and supplied from. 

Buy From American Based Supportive Companies, Small Business, Resources and Products. Check to see if your corporate services are supportive of their employees rather than just the greed of their stocks and personal bank accounts. Keep Hope Alive and Pray that the good hardworking people can unite and get a break from the heartless selfish power mongrels and sponges of our or nation that was founded on equal opportunity for all. 


 We all want the bottom price but there is a higher price to pay:

  • Low Quality – Not FDA approved - very possible unsafe products.
  • Dwindling Jobs that could support our families, friends and neighbors.
  • Loss of U.S. citizens pride and dignity.
  • Loss of Pride in where we live and our nation.
  • Loss of service that is humble and appreciative.
  • Lack of variety of places to shop or get services.
  • Empty malls, stores, cities, entertainment venues, local consumer resources.
  • Depressed empty communities.
  • Diminishing Entrepreneurism in The U.S. Of America.
  • Loss of Community Unity.
  • The value of the dollar bill.
  • People loosing their homes.
  • Lower tax revenue for local and national needs.
  • More government subsidy for citizen.
  • Turning a blind eye.
  • Self centered people.
  • Physical and mental health loss of the laid off unemployed and their families.
  • More Crime.
  • More Suicides
  • More substance abuse people.
  • More of the same old same old places everywhere.
  • Low Moral.
  • Loss of humanity and compassion.
  • Animosity.
  • Prejudices.
  • A lower educated society.
  • Industrial flight.

 

 Help to make us a stronger nation and united as:

One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."



As John F. Kennedy stated in his 1961 Inaugural Address:

My fellow citizen of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.
Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God's work must truly be our own.”

What Dreams May Come (1998) - An Incredible Movie & Masterpiece

I Love This Movie!!!!!

A spiritually creative film that incorporates many different religious and spiritual beliefs. 
The artistic melding of them is amazing. The core is deep spiritual love. This film no matter what your religion is opens the soul to who and what is really important and meaningful in our lives. 

It makes you think about those that make us who we are and want to be.  
A seed is planted in our minds that we can 
be that person if we hold on to the love and not the pride, selfishness or self-doubt. 

A timeless, amazingly artistically crafted masterpiece. A must see more than just once.

The ART of HOPE




 I am working on a painting for this event. 
A great organization that helps many people in need 
of love and comfort through a very tough time. 
I lost my dad to complication after surgery to remove his cancer. 
So this is an organization that speaks to my heart. 
Love you Dad!








"Hope"
By Dana Diaz de Leon 

 This is the painting I did for "The Art Of Hope 2013 Gala Event".
Seeds of hope flying free from the strife, thorns and desert they are living in.
They have been nurtured in love by the mother plant (God) which gives them thier strength.
Sheltered and nestled in the shadows is the promise of new life and a future.
Passion flower (left bottom) symbolizes the love that surrounds us.

                                                I created a vibrant flow of coffee stimulus.
It was a three day process.  I start with a basic drawing and worked in things. 
An energetic flow of coffee beans, sugar cubes, arromatic steam, cream,
and vibrant strokes of color.


Lorna wanted coffee themed cabnets 
to go with her over the top Coffee inspired kitchen.
This is the Design & Layout Drawing that I did for her.
 

 
 

That's the full scoop!

This is an opportunity to make a difference, be artistic and have fun!  

The good people at Action for Autism have paired up with

Food, artsy fun, family and love are the glue to this event.  

There is an alarmingly increasing number of children born with autism.
Just being more aware of what autism is and how to help those that struggle with it can make a huge difference! 

Along with many activities such as music, face painting, canvas painting, planting fun, games, raffles, etc......


We will be painting an interactive mural wall to inspire us to make a difference in the lives of those that struggle with autism daily.
