It is soooo good to hear from you! I think its great that you love him. I can relate to 'the torture' feeling. I am so thankful that I don't feel as destroyed as I used to two years ago. Sometimes, I allow myself to rethink things he said when he called to tell me the news he left. I have to push it out of my head with present grateful and good thoughts.
Tonight I will take your advice and re-read some DB chapters. As much as I want to see him, I want to be strong and do the 'unexpected'.
Thank you for the reminder 'to be patient and hang in there' most people don't understand. I don't want to take control of this because when I try, it often takes control of me.
I am praying for a nice holiday season.
Thanks for being there and checking in. I appreciate it very much.
