You may not feel as if you are where you envisioned you would be at this marker in your existence, however, I can tell you that your thoughtfulness, concern, and sharing of your experience has meant more to my existence these last few months than I can tell you.
I lost my Mom several years ago. I learned to grieve at that juncture, which came in handy since d-day.
My parents taught that without honor, there is nothing. I have carried those tenets close since I have learned of my W's betrayal. Whatever happens, I look to move forward honestly, and within the code that is right for my existence.
I feel we are brethen in this respect.
After D-day, we went to an MC, who said to me "This could be the best thing that ever happened to you." She was an idiot.
There are many hundreds of things that could have happened to me that were better than this. This, I did not need.
My point is, like you, I believe that from this devastation springs opportunity.
This will never be the best thing that could have happened to me, but, it may be the best thing I could ever make happen.
Some step in dogshit and take off their shoes and throw them away. Others find a way to turn it into fertilizer and profit.
I wish only good things for you in the coming year.
Happy Belated Birthday Bob!!!
Thanks so much for all your advice and wisdom, you are greatly appreciated!!!
Hope you have many, many, many more!!!
