It's too hard sometimes

[TooLateForMe]

Sorry, Mongoose. I know that same pain. W tells me it will pass. That's her limiting her guilt so that she can feel better about her decisions.

Whine. Get it out. Cry. I absolutely understand. Being a man, though, is being able to admit your pain and be vulnerable when you have to be. Strength isn't denying the grief it's being able to endure it for the sake of yourself and what you love.

That's an easy thing to forget when you feel split in half by the pain. There are a thousand things to do to lessen the pain but you must embrace some of it in order to evolve. I have to have hope to avoid becoming a bitter person. I have to try and try or my failures are greater.

I hope that helps. I hope you feel at least a little better knowing that I (and others here) have or still do feel the same pain, that you are not entirely alone.
