T- sounds like your inner strength has pushed you to another level.

You know those 5 stages of greif they talk about.. isn't it interesting .. we all have gone thruogh them or are going through them. Strange how it is really.

I am glad taht you have chose not to hold onto bitterness and have moved beyond. (THOUGH I KNOW there is REAL hurt, REAL pain.. to our every day interaction etc with our x's.)

I have tried to follow your lead with no contact with my x. Really, for me, there is no need. My son is 21 and he can build what he can with x. It is not my place to create or hinder a relationship with them. (X has done enough to make the relationship cahnge.. which is sad.) D13 - she communicates with him about events in her life.. funny how she has gotten so strong.

Glad you have had a good week...

hugs.
