Dear Daddies - All of you

"Jessi, I feel like part of me is good, and part of me is not.." My dad explained to me. He never reached a state of self content peace. At least not that I know, because he and I sort of had a falling out. If he didn't like my theological point and seemed out of arguments, it inevitably got confusingly ugly, because I argued that he was or could be ALL good.  
 
Because he never believed me, he never owned the most powerful parts of himself. His story breaks my heart over and over; the ending seemed lonely and far too soon.
 
I've been talking to a good man who doesn't want to acknowledge his true awesomeness right now. For that I feel inclined to shoulder the blame entirely; his self isolationist reaction notwithstanding. I bring out the worst in people but I love them entirely. I want love and healing for all the broken parts, nothing more, nothing less.
 
You share a divine essence gifted to you. Instead of adopting ideas as being you when they are not; which are living things unto themselves, why not differentiate yourself from them, seeing your pure essence as you instead? Accept yourselves entirely; it's what your family wants for you. Your true family.
