A turning point for you?

T, this is what GAL is about. If things remain the same, why would she want to come back?

Respond to the TM as a loving husband should. Be a better man. Be a better husband. Your W is not the enemy.

You can do this Tomato... today is going to be the first positive day of many.. just try to focus on good things.. like how much you've grown and learned about yourself during this process.. How many wonderful people you found out were out in the world wanting to help you, listen to you and cheer you on.

We all have a lot to be grateful for. It's just difficult to remember it sometimes.

God bless.
W2G

Hope you have a better day today. I have learned this whole thing is two steps forward and three back!! It will take time.

Love even when not received. I just posted this somewhere else..

True love is loving when you don't receive it back.

God works in HIS time, not ours.

Don't lose faith, continue to give your trust to God.

since you like to write, I thought I'd write my song I wrote a couple weeks ago.

My God have you forsaken me,
When I need you so desperately
I'm surrounded by confusing apathy
(needing a line here)

I'm waiting for your God sent sign,
Cause the choice just isn't clear in my mind
Should I go or do I wait in pain to see
When he's coming home, can't feel anymore

Lord, come save me,
Hold, me lead me,
Cause I cry, I cry

Lord, I need you
Teach, me to trust you
And I'll fly, I'll fly (fly for lack of a better word now)

My God will never leave me,
His love is greater than we see
Like in David's struggle He can rescue thee
I am not alone, my strengths from the Lord.


I know mine isn't as eloquent as yours. maybe you can help me!


Have a Valentines day that is filled with love from your friends and your loving God. God can transform your W's heart too.

Hello every1

I've been absent for a bit.

I wish I could say that I was making wonderful strides during that time. But I would be lying - not something that I do.

I have had many agravations and things that caused me to blow my stack. All of them pretty much peripheral, non-W realted things, but still items that are weighing me down.

I have a immense back log of fairly critical issues that, do to my shift in "fire fighting" - AKA priorities, have been terribly neglected. I just feel like a bumbling idiot - incapable of decisions regardless of there nature/magnitude.

I received a "Happy Valentines Day" contained in a call fm W today. I sent a nice Valentine e-greeting to her as well, which aparently she hadn't opened yet when she called. Not that this all matters too much.

God is the provider of light to shine on the paths of right. Walk them. Or if exhausted, allow him to carry you.

tomato. great quote at bottom of your post. hang in there.

So many thanks to issue

for starters
I Wanna - - As to whether or not my feeling embarassed with my life is a turning point? That was a broad statement and obviously a over-reaction during a time of some despair. But it probably is a little bit of a turning point for me. And some of that realization of things I wantot change about me has given me the kick to get to work on 180's.

Where2go - Thanks for the wonderfully supportive words

SO2 - You are a trooper for sure. I sure don't want to see you get further hurt by H so do be careful. Don't rush anything (the tortoise that I am, I live that one). Your mention of the things you've learned (as I hope we all are)really rings true to me of what all the various journeys, trials & episodes in life are all about . .LEARNING! And to take it one step further . .aplying what you learn.

S.T. Imade - What a lovely gesture to place your song on my thread. And if I wasn't pretty well balanced my head and ego would swell from the respect/admiration you tossed my way in reference to my try at poems. Almost like you think I am an accomplished pro at that stuff and was published lol. Thanks again for appreciating my poetry. I do like your "song" very much. Both because it is good and because the subject is prayers to God which could not mean more to me. I will continue to look it over but my knee-jerk reaction is to let your work not be tarnished by my comments or suggestions. I am no teacher of arts but I am finding that I have acquired a fondness for dabling in them.

Thanks Craig

I always try to come up with something fresh off the top of my head.

You hang in there as well. Hope you're doing well.

I am off to prayer-ville

I strive for a balance between petitions to God and keeping a trained ear for his omniscient retort.

How do you train an ear though. Gotta figure that one out still. Maybe that's why I have a hard time hearing him. Or more likely, I am just deaf. From all that loud RUSH music & airplane noise. Can never get enough of both though.

Can never get enough of God's help either.

<We are one in the spirit, we are one in the Lord>
<hmmm hmm hmm hm hmm hm .. . >

I am up against it and I will see if God helps tilt things in my favor today. I am referring to my truck shopping for which I set a deadline of 1 week (cuz my trans. sitch is pretty dire)and the week is only hours fm conclusion.

Guess I will go catch some zzzzzzzzzz. Then hope to get a 'break in the case' as far as the truck shopping goes.

The Lord wants to see us suceed.

What is the definition of sucess anyway?
