Thanks gr8 day 2B alive,

I have read DR along with about 20 other books, but have not read DB. It appears that I need to follow the path of DB/DR so I will be rereading DR to help me develop my goals and strategies and read DB as well.

So that I am clear on the first 2 steps:
Get rid of negative feelings - Is this how I am feeling (depression, lack of energy, mopping), which is not attractive? Or is it how I communicate with my W?

Become friends again - So I do not want to go dark, but keep a thin line of communication, e.g. Hi, I hope all is well? Send this email at a frequency of about once per week? Her birthday is next week so I thought I would send her a simple B-day card saying "I hope you have a great day"....Me. that would be my communication with her for that week.

I will definetly go to the bookstore tonight and get DB.
