I wasn't ready for my stand to be about me. I had lots of people tell me to make standing and DBing about me, but I wasn't able to do that till now. I was standing for my marriage, my H, and my D3. I was an afterthought.

I also wasn't ready to let my H go, not really. I will still struggle with this, and I am still finding what it will mean for how I proceed in the future. I am no longer defining my success by whether or not my marriage is healed.
