Mission 25. I Really Mean it this time>

Thanks Grace;

It means so much to me to have a veteran like yourself chime in.

ITs funny this site, when you see the # of posts from some of its members , they are like badges of honour. Like you have been there helping people for so long.

Despite an internal battle I was having with myself, I did take Ak's advice and went with MY instinct on something since I do know my wife still despite the alien creature she has become.

I did send her a hand written letter inside the card I had for the boys with no expectations. I thought my son had delivered that earlier when he went this morning and when she didnt respond, I didnt think anything of it but it wasnt given to her till recently and I did think she would respond and she did.

Again, this changes NOTHING between our current sitch but it does let me know that the woman I married almost 18 years ago is still in there somewhere.

Her response to my letter:

Thank you for the letter. Your wisdom is quite a great quality. Your thoughtfullness is unmeasureable. Cant be measured. I thank you from the heart. I will keep that letter always. It means so much to me in so MANY ways.

Now before anyone trys to interpret this letter. Maybe its best to accept it for what it is. Just a response from two people that used to be in love to a very trying situation. Does that mean she is going to come running into my arms? Heck no. I wanted to ease her mind a little today and also let her know that I still do have a heart and despite my days of going dark and how i have ignored her, I do think about the important things still.

Thoughts?
