Grit,

Truly a beautiful post to start this new phase of your journey.

You know I understand right where you are at as I too feel myself moving, however I don't think I am there.....not yet.

As Mach would say "Time to make it your skin", but exactly what are those actions that will make it a part of your skin?

This is not detachment, this is letting go. You have told me before, "she does not want you right now." The Unconditional Love you and I have identified will be put to the test when you "Let Go" out of love not because of what she did or because she is not responding.

This letting go is like saying, "I am happy for you".

Hard to imagine doing that one. At some point it will come to that, will it not???? The cage door is open and they are running free, free to chose who they want, free to do what they want, free to follow their heart's desire without fear of your disapproval.

I for one could not imagine saying to my W, "I am happy for you" if she chose a life with the OM.......I know that is probably the direction I am headed in but do not know if I will get there.

Would the Man in Full be able to say, "I am happy for you" one day????

Sorry, if it hurts.....it hurts writing it.

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
