I realize some do - but man oh man the work that it is to come back THROUGH. EVEN if NOT to come home but to face so much of their own pain.
I too have found peace/happiness and don't have anxiety.. it is a good place to be though it wasn't where I wanted to be - it is where I am.. and I believe I am coming to acceptance - which has been a very very long time in the coming.
I have also come to realize that I still need to work on forgiveness. thought I had - really thought I had but yesterday there were sermons that I stream online - well uh I can say today that I still need Gods help on this one!
Hope your day is good.
