Quote: The greatest discovery of my generation is that man can alter his life simply by altering his attitude of mind. - William James
this quote was sent to me the other day (i get inspirational quotes sent to me daily) and this one really stuck with me - cause this is the true essense of db'n
we db - not to save our marriages but to save ourselves. if we save our marriage in the process, well then by golly that is a bonus
i would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you on this board for being who you all are, my support team. i hope and i pray that i can return the favor that you have so graciously given me over the past few months sometime in the future.
we are all in the same boat, fighting the fine fight of finding who we really are - sometimes we don't like what we find so we make changes. other times we find parts of ourselves that were once there but have been hidden down deep with insecurities and fears. but whatever we find, we do find we become better people because of this process - so that in itself we call all be thankful for
thank you all for joining me on this journey to self discovery
odga - thanks for the welcome to the new thread!!!
chl - gosh david, thanks so much, that makes me feel good to know that i have been able to help others!!!
pam - aw pam!!! lol - can't be the first poster EVERY time! LOL - oh and sweetie, glad i could help, i was really worried about you!!!

POSITIVES
1) hubby came home on friday and actually came to me and gave me a hug. i think i shocked him with my look in my eyes that i was genuinely happy that he had done that.
2) saturday morning he got up around 8am to find me laying in the boys room watching tv (he usually wakes up around 10 on saturdays) and he told me, "you can come to our room and watch tv" - so i did, and he and i watched a movie together - wow - he usually really values his quiet time on saturday mornings
3) watching daughter and hubby interact again today, and yes, once again, i know that i have made the right decision to stand for my marriage

not to much to update, hubby has been around full time since thursday afternoon
looking forward to catching up with everyone this week
