WOW ... T2 ... that is a very powerful analogy. Yes, I too, was drafted into the army that fought that war and thought that when CAW offered me a olive branch that the war was all over and for six months it seemed we able to bury the ghosts.
... but your post today showed she was not able to bury her ghosts and the demons are convincing her I'm still holding her emotional freedom hostage. This now puts meaining behind a comment she made at the end of summer that she doesn't want to end up resenting me?
