Where is the logic in staying separated?


If I might chime in...
Timing is everything, good and bad. There hasn't been much logic in dealing with raw emotions, so seperation and patience are a necessity.
Lord knows I can give many examples of premature reconcilliation, even a few when I stayed away when she wanted me to pursue. These are the reasons for FAITH.

The solution is not to cram us all back in that house and hope for the best, though. That would kill us within 3 months.



Usually does, and then you're just further away.

As far as I myself am concerned, if my husband and I have not crossed that last bridge yet, it is probably because I still have a few more lessons to learn. I don't worry about his lessons. That's the direct result of my faith. I KNOW God is working and I do not need to see it or hear about it in order to sleep at night.


Your lessons, maybe? If they're his then he owns them. Could be a third option Amy, you might have more to teach others. Either way it's about being comfortable in our own skins.
