And I love that you keep using this line 'become a women that only a fool would leave!' I keep telling myself.
It is rather inspiring, huh? 25mlc uses that phrase a lot and I think it's a wonderful mantra.
I went to my uncle's funeral today. He was a good man. My other uncle was there, and will pass away in the next couple months I suspect. His wife has stuck by him through things that I don't have time or energy to explain here right now... but we all thought she was crazy for standing by him. But she did it, and now he's dying and her unconditional love for him is truly an inspiration. She's modeled for her children that when the going gets tough, you just keep trying, stay faithful and patient. She has persevered and I can only hope to be that strong.
It was hard not to have my H with me. I intended to put on my ring again to avoid any ?s, but forgot. As it was, everyone was very nice and supportive. I think the older we get the more accepting and tolerant of tough choices we get. Everyone seems hopeful H will come around. I know I am and it was good to talk to some women that have held on. My cousin's wife was separated from her H for 18 mths. They are back together now and about to celebrate their 30th Anniversary.
Anything is possible! We just have to have faith in God and leave the results up to Him.
