song....as Carrie said in Sex in the City, " I likee".
Funny...how our parents really did know more that we did. I love the analogy your mom gave you.
Live by it for now.
Ironically, my mom used to tell me as a young boy/man that there was 'nothing deader than a dead romance.' Coming from a woman.
I'll share with you another signature here...one from my friend mulesqb that his dad shared with him: "Tough times don't last. Tough men do." I shared that with my son recently.
song...trust me on this one. You will emerge from this stronger, better, faster. You only owe yourself one thing here besides looking after your family: 1, 2, 3 or whatever years from now..if you can wake up and look yourself in the mirror, know you tried and you like what you see....you win.
