Got to get my mind around the pain party in my future.



This is how it was explained to me, Z, when I found out my wife was having an affair:

PAIN HAS COME TO PAY YOU A VISIT. Think of it as a STORM. You can do nothing, and let it consume you and destroy you, or you can steel yourself and start to trudge INTO it, and eventually -- with God's help -- THRU it.

Either way, the storm isn't going away.

If you want, check out my old threads, when I used to post as "Chocolateeyes." For reference, my wife's affair was May - Aug 2007, and there are several threads about "The Storm."
