It's nice to see that your wife is warming some. Congratulations.
Two things that you mentioned here hit close to home for me too. I had strayed from faith for a long time (church as a kid, but not very active religiously as an adult). This has brought me a lot closer to God and I have had more than one instance where something seems to have been laid out before me that seemed to be placed there for a reason. Too fitting to be coincidental. It gives me hope. I think he's listening.
The other thing is living in the now. I think that's all we can do. None of us can be too sure what our futures will look like.
Maybe these should be acts in the LBS script!
