The Long and Winding Road...

[bhopeful]

Thanks for the encouragement Jenny. And for thinking that she's lucky to have me. I really hope that she's starting to see that.

I've definitely been using this time to figure out what I'm all about. I'd never lived alone before this, so my life was always defined by either my parents or my wife. I can tell you that I didn't really know who I was. I'd never taken the time to really look at myself. Now that I've taken the time, I don't think that I'm that different. I know that I am more self assured and confident, but I didn't come to any earth shattering conclusions. It's been a hard but good journey for me.

I should change my name since patience is what I struggle with most right now. When I first got on here I chose the name bhopeful since my real name starts with a B and hopefulness was something that I didn't have much of. So, my username was more of a reminder to myself to stay positive than anything else.

Peace,
B
