Pun thank you for sharing that. I like it. I think that is my goal too.

I think I can get there with my W. Not right now. She is too confused with things I can only guess about.

I don't know how she feels. I don't know what it must be like to have to deal with the trauma she suffered as a child...

that is coming home to roost now when we should be having our own children instead of her reliving what was done to her when she was a child.

I will never be able to finish her thoughts on that...

I will never be able to finish her sentences on that...

As much as I want to take her pain away I can't

I HAVE TRIED

and I have suffered the failure of that.

I have blamed myself for that.

And I have been angry about that.

That is a happy day what you describe up there and I want it.

BUT

I think when we take our vows there is a part that anticipates that it isn't always that way...

For better or worse.

If that happy day is the goal...

How do we get there?

Does trust get stronger from the worse? Or weaker?

Does our "in tuneness" get stronger or weaker from our trials?

Are we entitled to love on our terms? Always?

How would your H describe love do you think?

There is only one person who can ask these questions because right now

there is only one person who will listen to the answers Punkin.

Guess who that sexy Grandma is?


My goal is to some day be the person my dog thinks I am
