Thank you! That "one little thing" worry of mine is a good point. The truth is, there was a brief time (NOW I'M REMEMBERING!) Very brief...that I was truly willing to let him go in my own heart. I didn't have to say anything, I guess it just reflected in my actions. I wasn't resigned so much as I just told myself "this is the way it is". I am glad you got my memory churning. I could've critiqued myself during that time and found lots of things I'd probably think might push him away but in reality,his decisions I'm sure are made long before I do one little thing or another. I like what you said about not focusing on HIS actions, but mine. This I can do. I've just been through so much lately I FEEL like the weakest person in the world, but I'm not, I'm very strong; and I guess I need to start believing that myself before I can expect him to. THANKS AGAIN!
