Whew, I just spilled a bunch in a response to CL. Anyway... Why do we go through this? Because it's the same as eating? In other words, it's part of life, it's what we do as people, just like eating. Is that your point?
If it is, I think it's a good one. But maybe I've grown tired of the menu, or the selection here upsets my stomach these days and it's time to try other food.
The funny part is, there is not guarantee the next person will be better, but it's a sure bet the next person will have issues and problems. So why bother with anybody at all? Life is good by yourself, why muck it up with someone else's problems?
For 3 small kids, I'd make it work too.
I always appreciate, Aud, that you don't give the hard core DB line, and your not just a cheerleader, that you give this real thought. You are a strong person. I think all this has made me stronger too. I feel I've woken, and now I'm trying to figure out what happened while I was asleep. One think I do know is I never want to be asleep again. I want to live my life, be in it, feel.
We do live in a disposable society. And our economy pushes families apart. It's hard to fight against our society, culture, economy, etc.
Why do this? In my response to CL, I mentioned that my faith in Love and the fairy tale were broken, or at least severly damaged. But, maybe, after all this work, something does become clear, something does work out and get better. The things really worth having are worth working hard for, being patient for. Our throw away culture doesn't value those things much, but the prize may be (May Be) wonderful.
Of course, once you do figure it out, and life gets good, it's only a matter of time before the next challenge hits you, the next lesson, and all your prior lessons don't help, because this lesson is new. :-)
You still doing well Aud. What's up in your world? Small steps?
