Lessons from a former WAS

[thegoodfight]

w8ing,

You were married for 15 years, you have children, I don't buy it was an unhappy marriage otherwise it would not have lasted that long. My mother threw out my biological father when I was 4 years old and my brother was 1. They were married about 4.5 years. Call it MLC, call it depression or confusion, call it what you want, bottom line something happens or doesn't happen and it causes people to examine everything in life. Hang in there if you think it is worth it.

I will be honest I am in a lousy mood today and right now don't feel very confident about anything. However I also know that this will pass soon. I always take a few days to let my high's and low's pass. Normally I do my best thinking and DB when I am calm. Anxiety and fear of the outcome are the enemy, the enemy uses these emotions to cause doubt and pain.

Do not allow the enemy to accomplish their goals, their goal is to make you forget that we are loved every day, and we should love others and ourselves, the way we are loved. Let your stress and fear pass, they will come back but know they will not be there for ever. In the end no matter what is thrown at you, you will be given what you need to get through it.

By the way on the subject of my parents not working it out and the divorce games that were played on both sides. I can assure you that kids want their parents together and it is very selfish for parents not to do what they can to save the family, with the exception of when the situation endangers the children. Such as physical abuse or drugs in the home. Just my opinion.
