Mila I think we all have our own reasons for standing. In the beginning for me, it was because I loved my h, wanted him home, missed him, wanted my family etc.
Later in the crisis, I was standing for M and not wanting to be quitter, standing for what I believed in, and for what I thought God wanted me to do.
Then near the end of the crisis, wasn't sure what I should be doing and whether standing was for me anymore. Afterall, I had already stood for over 3 years and didn't have it in me anymore. Just when I decided my life was going in a different direction was when God brought my h home. Who knew?
