Hi BND, I love you dearly. Take time for yourself if you need to, but please add me to your list of people who are needing/wanting/craving your insights and posts. So, can your break be short-lived? I am so excited about your H coming home. Let me know if there is anything I can do to support you in this next phase, as I am sure there will be readjustments and challenges. Meanwhile, please do not forget you are adored. Love to you

Hi BND, I will miss your contributions/input to the BB. Actually I meant to email you with a couple of questions and will do so this weekend. Thanks for being there/here for me. May God bless your H's homecoming time, and provide you with all that you need to begin the restoration of your M. Love, PH.
I do not know to what hurt you are referring, but you are a staple here on the boards. Your last post to me, while I am trying to absorb this was a life preserver. Thank you. I have rediscovered my faith through this experience. You are sharing your experience and the answers you found through yours. I welcome this. Thank you. YOu reaffirm my journey.
I gentle reminder to all. I was seeing my GP early on in this experience. He affirmed that he believes TJ is in a MLC. He ( a medical doctor) was the first to discribe this as a spiritual journey. He meant TJ ( who he also saw). I know HE meant this for me too. So by sharing your faith and your spirituality with us, you are a beacon of hope and light. We can choose to march toward this or chose the beat of a different drummer. All is good. All fit our own individual needs. This is a support site. I refuse to accept negativity in my life. You are a wonder BND. Please take time for you and your family, and enjoy the blessings in your life. You deserve them. Thank you for being you. The honest, real you. Cheers, Holly
Bomb 1/06 D dismissed 11/07, attempt reconciliation. Premature. Divorce final October 31, 2008. OW looks like bad history. Over. Still hopeful. Baby steps. In R with my X.
I hope your break isn't permanent--I love reading your posts and seeing a hopeful situation. All the best to you and your family as your H comes home. If I can say this without being selfish, please let us know how things are going. I'm curious and excited about the next phase of your life. Be well!
I'll join everyone else in saying we hope your break is for YOU and short.
You have always had KIND words for us here, of encouragement. I never felt that you pushed God into anything (there are those here that do it so much more and it is never offensive). I have never felt that you gave me false hope. I have never felt that you offended me. Of course, I'm not the one you're talking about, but I wanted you to know that you HELP more than you know.
You have always offered a hand to me when I was down on this ride. You have always clarified things when my H seemed so confusing to me, so scary depressed. You have always made me feel "normal" for posting some crazy things that my H has done. Thank you for that.
I am so proud of you. I am so VERY happy for you. I keep you and your family in my prayers for the wonderful reunion.
BND I hope you carry on looking and giving advice - blunt or not its what we need to hear sometime. I pray for your H's speedy return and that all goes well with it. God bless you Ash
The kids are busy writing out their Valentine's cards and planning their class parties for Wednesday.
The older ones will be also be home next weekend so that will be fun and we will celebrate D19 birthday.
I am going to be taking a little break from the boards for a while as I need to sort through some things.
I also know and have been made aware that I have offended some here with my attitude and my way of thinking. And although I have apologized to some here, there are others who can not accept my words.
And yes, that is their problem, but I will keep my distance for a while just to let things calm down a bit. This needs to be a safe place for everyone to be able to share without feeling threatened.
I do not want people to feel like I will throw God into everything. For me it worked to pray and to allow Him to direct my paths, each one of us has their own way of coping with the pain.
I have tried to be as honest as possible about my journey through my Husband's MLC.
Many of those who were here when I first arrived saw a pathetic fool who refused to just listen and be still. You have seen me at my very worst and are begining to see me at my very best.
When I first came here I wanted to understand why my life was falling apart and what the heck was wrong with my Husband.
Instead I had to learn about what was wrong with me so that I could get strong and be mentally prepared to handle my life regardless as to whether he came back or not.
So now I am in a good place and I have learned so much from so many here and it has been the very best therapy ever. I am no longer afraid of the unknown I am now looking forward to it with my Husband.
Blessings, XXXXX
praying for you BND - I appreciated your input on my threads.
