SPOILER ALERT...
I took the kids to see the premiere of Shrek 3 last night...

Shrek was a WAH!!

Of course very fairytale - he wishes he could go back to his life before rescuing and falling in love with his wife, and it comes true with terrible consequences that, of course, he never envisioned.
Faced with all of the turmoil he caused, all that he misses, he fights hard to win over his wife, even sacrificing himself for her and others, realizing too late that he really did have it all.

And love's kiss brings everything back to normal, with a newly grateful husband happy to be home with his wife, kids, friends, and "boring" life.

Ah, if life were so neatly wrapped up as in fairy tales!!!

Mine is an ex who I don't think will ever feel any remorse...which means that I am right where I need to be.
